By using the distance, speed, and acceleration, to show on the graph the constant speed of each car
If the graph is a non-vertical straight line, then the rate of change is constant. If the line is curved, then the rate of change (slope) varies.
as a horizontal straight line
yes
The graph of a linear function is a line with a constant slope. The graph of an exponential function is a curve with a non-constant slope. The slope of a given curve at a specified point is the derivative evaluated at that point.
The slope of each point on the line on the graph is the rate of change at that point. If the graph is a straight line, then its slope is constant. If the graph is a curved line, then its slope changes.
To determine the rate constant from a graph, you can use the slope of the line in a first-order reaction plot. The rate constant is equal to the negative slope of the line, which can be calculated by dividing the change in concentration by the change in time.

The answer is : (B) A constant rate of acceleration. :)

A velocity-time graph would show uniform acceleration of a moving vehicle as a straight line with a constant positive slope, indicating that the vehicle is accelerating at a consistent rate.
A horizontal line on a velocity-time (V-T) graph would show constant speed. This is because the slope of a V-T graph represents acceleration, and a horizontal line means zero acceleration, indicating constant speed.
When something has a constant rate of change it means that it has a linear graph. The function can be written in the slope intercept form of y = mx + b.
acceleration is the slope of the v t graph... so the acceleration is constant and negative. In other words, the object is slowing down at a constant rate.
To determine the rate constant k from a graph of reaction kinetics, you can use the slope of the line in a first-order reaction or the y-intercept in a second-order reaction. The rate constant k is typically calculated by analyzing the linear relationship between concentration and time in the reaction.
If the line formed by the graph is straight, the speed is constant. A horizontal line would show the object as stationary.
