The velocity is constant and non-zero.
The velocity is constant and non-zero.

The acceleration is negative.
The acceleration is negative.

The acceleration is constant and non-zero.
The acceleration is constant and non-zero.

Answer 1

If the graph of an object's position over time is a horizontal line (and \( y \neq 0 \)), this indicates that the position of the object remains the same over time. Therefore, the object is not changing its position, which means:

• The velocity is zero.

So, the correct response is:

The velocity is zero.
