The graph represents velocity vs. time for Carla. A graph with horizontal axis time (seconds) and vertical axis velocity (meters per second). A line runs in straight segments from 0 seconds 15 meters per second to 1 seconds 13 meters per second to 2 seconds 10 meters per second to 3 seconds 4 meters per second to 4 seconds 0 meters per second to 6 seconds 4 meters per second. Which best describes the graph? Carla sped up in the beginning of her trip, stopped, and then slowed down. Carla had a greater acceleration in the beginning than in the end. Carla slowed down in the beginning of her trip, stopped, and then sped up. Carla had a continuous acceleration throughout the entire trip.

The statement that best describes the graph is Carla slowed down in the beginning of her trip, stopped, and then sped up.

Explanation:

Data:

Horizontal axis = time.

Vertical axis = velocity (m/s).

A line runs in straight segments

According to the data present in the graph, it can be seen that Carla starts with a speed in her career, which decreases over time. After four seconds she stops, remains stopped for one second and starts running again, with an initial speed of 4 m/s.

In conclusion, the graph show Carla -who is moving- slows down until she stops, and then starts the race again.

Explanation:

emerging idea only occurs as a raw idea that could appear out of nowhere. meanwhile, to reach scientific consensus , that idea must be structured and tested over and over again through various experiments. the scientific consensus transforms the raw idea into idea that is more reliable through the process of scientific elimination.
