accessing an element of an array

Answer 1

The algorithm that will run in constant time is:

accessing an element of an array

Accessing an element in an array takes the same amount of time regardless of the size of the array, which is why it is considered constant time (O(1)). The other operations, such as traversing an array, binary search, and sorting an array, all take more than constant time.
