Question

The graph shows the motion of a horse during the first portion of a race. Which statement is true about the horse's motion? (1 point) Responses The horse decreased its velocity during this portion of the race. The horse decreased its velocity during this portion of the race. The horse maintained a constant velocity during this portion of the race. The horse maintained a constant velocity during this portion of the race. The horse maintained a constant acceleration during this portion of the race. The horse maintained a constant acceleration during this portion of the race. The horse increased its acceleration during this portion of the race.

Answer 1

To accurately answer the question about the motion of the horse during the race, I would need to know what Graph A, Graph B, Graph C, and Graph D look like. Typically, the interpretation of a graph depends on how the axes are labeled (e.g., time vs. distance, time vs. velocity) and the shape of the graph (e.g., linear, curved).

Here are some general guidelines based on common graph types:

1. If the graph is a straight line with a positive slope (distance vs. time): The horse is maintaining a constant velocity.
2. If the graph is a straight line with a negative slope (distance vs. time): The horse is decreasing its velocity.
3. If the graph is curved upwards (distance vs. time): The horse is increasing its velocity (constant acceleration).
4. If the graph is curved downwards (distance vs. time): The horse is decreasing its acceleration.

Please provide additional details or images of the graphs for specific matching.
