What does Graph U demonstrate about the motion of an object?

Graph U likely illustrates a scenario where the motion of an object is depicted over time, showing a change in velocity. If the correct interpretation is that the object slows down and then reverses direction, this could be represented in a position vs. time graph as a curve that flattens out before changing direction. This behavior indicates that at first, the object is moving in a particular direction, but the slope of the graph (which represents velocity) decreases, suggesting that the object is slowing down.

As the graph flattens and then starts to incline in the opposite direction, it shows that the object is not only decreasing its speed to a stop but also changing its motion to move in the opposite direction. This phenomenon typically indicates that an object has reached a point of zero velocity before starting to travel back in the opposing direction, which aligns with the assertion of slowing down and reversing direction.

The other options suggest different consistent behaviors of motion, but they do not capture the nuances of both deceleration and direction change that is crucial to understanding the complete motion described by Graph U.
