Force Motion Time Graphs Speed Graph

The graph below shows the motion of the runner over time. Based on the information in the graph, which of the following statements best describes the motion of the runner?

• The runner's speed was less at 4 seconds than at 2 seconds.

• The runner's speed was decreasing for the last 4 seconds.

• The runner's speed was increasing for all 10 seconds.

• The runner's speed was constant for all 10 seconds
