. Looking at the Position-Time Graph (Blue Graph), the slope of the lines on each graph is steeper when the man is moved quickly compared to when he is moved slowly. This means that the man covers a larger distance in a shorter amount of time when he is moved quickly, resulting in a steeper slope. Conversely, when he is moved slowly, the distance covered is smaller in the same amount of time, resulting in a shallower slope.

The statement is correct. When the man is moved quickly, the lines on the Position-Time Graph will have a steeper slope because he is covering a larger distance in a shorter amount of time. In contrast, when the man is moved slowly, the lines will have a shallower slope because he is covering a smaller distance in the same amount of time. The slope of a line on a Position-Time Graph represents the speed or velocity of an object, so a steeper slope indicates a higher velocity.
