Question

What is the velocity of the object? (Given a position-time graph with points: (0,10), (6,10) maybe?)
Options
A 5 m/s
B -5 m/s
C 10 m/s
D 0 m/s
Correct Answer
Correct Answer

Option D is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

From the graph, if the position remains constant over time (horizontal line), the velocity is zero. The graph shows x constant at 10 m from t=0 to t=6 s, so the object is stationary.

Hint

Velocity is the slope of the position-time graph. A horizontal line means zero slope.
