Answer 1

To determine during which time segment the object is moving forward but slowing down, we need to analyze the characteristics of the velocity vs. time graph:

• The object is moving forward when the velocity is positive (above the time axis).
• The object is slowing down when the velocity is decreasing (the graph is sloping downwards).

If you have segments labeled A, B, C, and D, you would look for a segment where the velocity is positive and the value of the velocity is decreasing over that segment.

Without the actual graph, I can’t give a specific segment. However, if you are able to identify which segment is positive and decreasing, you would select that one.

Please refer to the graph to find the correct segment based on these criteria.
