The graph shows an object’s distance traveled over a period of time

Question

there's a graph that shows a big L and a curve line on the L going upward and it says at one side of the L "Distance" and at the bottom of the L it says "Time"

What can you tell about the object from the graph?

The object is moving at a steady speed.
The object is moving at a steady speed.

The object is slowing down.
The object is slowing down.

The object is curving.
The object is curving.

The object is accelerating.

Answer 1

Based on the description of the graph, it appears that there is a straight portion of the "L" indicating a constant distance over time, followed by a curve that goes upward.

• The straight portion suggests that the object is not moving during that time (i.e., distance does not change).
• The curved portion indicates that the object is accelerating, since the distance traveled is increasing at an increasing rate as time progresses.

Therefore, the best choice from the options provided is:

The object is accelerating.
