The flat line tells us that the object is moving at a constant velocity. It has zero acceleration.

A flat line on a velocity vs. time graph represents constant velocity, indicating that an object is moving at a consistent speed without changing.
A slanting line down from left to right represents an acceleration on the velocity time graph.
An upward sloping diagonal line on a velocity vs. time graph represents constant acceleration. The steeper the slope, the greater the acceleration.
The slope of a position-time graph represents the velocity of an object. A steeper slope indicates a higher velocity, while a flatter slope indicates a lower velocity. Positive slopes represent motion in one direction, negative slopes represent motion in the opposite direction, and a horizontal line represents an object at rest.
A horizontal line on a position-time graph or a stationary line on a velocity-time graph represents the motion of an object with zero net force. These graphs indicate constant velocity motion, where the object is moving at a consistent speed in a straight line.
The slope of the line tangent to the curve on a position-time graph at a specific time represents the velocity of the object at that particular moment. It indicates how fast the object is moving at that instant.
