Each time the man stopped and took a break, what happened to the line on the Velocity-Time Graph (Red Graph). Explain why.

Question

(the graph continues in a straight line)

Answer 1

If the man stopped and took a break, the line on the Velocity-Time graph would become a horizontal line at zero velocity. This is because when an object is at rest, its velocity is zero. Therefore, there would be no change in the velocity of the man during the break, resulting in a straight, horizontal line on the graph.
