To accurately determine the conclusion regarding the rider's motion from the graph, we would need to visually analyze the graph itself. However, I can help you understand how to interpret different aspects of a motion graph:
-
Speed (constant, increasing, or decreasing): If the graph shows a straight, diagonal line, the rider is maintaining a constant speed. If the line slopes downward (moving from left to right), the rider is slowing down. If the line slopes upward, the rider is speeding up.
-
Incline or decline: If the graph represents position vs. time and the line slopes downward, it usually indicates that the rider is moving downhill. Conversely, an upward slope may indicate an uphill motion.
-
Stationary periods: If there is a flat horizontal line (no change in position over time), it indicates that the rider is not moving during that time period.
Based on the response options you provided:
- The rider slowed down during the time period between 15 and 20 seconds.
- The rider maintained a constant speed during the time period between 0 and 20 seconds.
- The rider rode downhill during the time period between 15 and 20 seconds.
- The rider did not move during the time period between 10 and 15 seconds.
You would need to check the specific characteristics of the graph in the time intervals mentioned to determine which statement is accurate. If you can describe the graph or provide details about its characteristics, I would be happy to help you analyze it further!
