The obect was stationary during the time period indicated by the end points of the horizontal section.
You cannot. A distance vs time graph only measures radial distance - that is, distance from the origin to the object. If the object is going around the origin along a circular path, the distance vs time graph will not show any change in distance.The [incorrect] answer that you are required to give is that the graph will be a horizontal line during that period. But as explained above, the horizontal graph only means the object has no movement towards or away from the origin, not that it has no movement.
If time is along the horizontal axis, and speed up the vertical, then a horizontal line indicates that at all times the speed remains at a fixed value. Hence the object is travelling at a constant speed of v, where v is the height of the horizontal line.
No, a horizontal line on a velocity vs. time graph indicates a constant velocity, not acceleration. An acceleration would be represented by a non-zero slope on a velocity vs. time graph.
A position-time graph with a straight line indicates constant acceleration. The slope of the line represents the acceleration, which is constant if the slope remains the same throughout the graph. A steeper slope indicates a greater acceleration, while a shallower slope indicates a smaller acceleration.
The shape of a position versus time graph is parabolic when the object is undergoing constant acceleration. This acceleration results in a quadratic relationship between position and time, forming a parabolic curve.
The straight horizontal line on a graph is referred to as the x-axis. The vertical line on a graph is the y-axis.
You put time on the horizontal axis and distance on the vertical axis.
A slope of zero or a horizontal line on a distance-time graph represents an object at rest, not moving. This indicates that the object is not changing its position over time.
The straight horizontal line on the graph says: "Whatever time you look at, the speed is always the same". This is the graph of an object moving with constant speed.
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.
time is normally the horizontal line
constant speed
On a graph, a horizontal line reprents no change in data.

-- If the graph displays speed against time, then speed of zero is indicated wherever the graph-line touches the x-axis. -- If the graph displays distance against time, then speed of zero is indicated wherever the graph-line is horizontal. -- If the graph displays acceleration (magnitude) against time, then the graph can tell you when speed is increasing or decreasing, but it doesn't show what the actual speed is.
