To match each type of graph to the motion it represents, here's how they typically correspond:

  • Graph A: A boat with decreasing speed (this would usually be a downward sloping graph).
  • Graph B: A boat that is moving at constant speed (this would typically be a horizontal line).
  • Graph C: A boat that is not moving (this would be a flat line at zero).
  • Graph D: A boat gaining acceleration (this would usually be an upward sloping graph that curves upwards).

So the matches would be:

  • Graph A → A boat with decreasing speed
  • Graph B → A boat that is moving at constant speed
  • Graph C → A boat that is not moving
  • Graph D → A boat gaining acceleration
