Question

1. directions select the correct answer. in the position - time graph below, a boy is riding his bike to school. in which segment of the graph does the boy stop for a brief rest? select the correct answer. position (m) 80 60 q r 40 t s 20 0 0 20 40 60 80 100 time (s)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall position - time graph concept

In a position - time graph, zero slope means no change in position.

Step2: Analyze each segment

Segments Q, R, and S have non - zero slopes. Segment T has a slope of 0. When the slope of the position - time graph is 0, the object is at rest as its position is not changing with time.

Answer:

Segment T
