The given figure represents the displacement of a particle as a function of time. Based on the figure, we can conclude that:

 

Option: 1

The particle initially starts with a certain velocity, but its motion is decelerated, eventually coming to a stop.


Option: 2

The velocity of the particle remains constant throughout.


Option: 3

The acceleration of the particle remains constant throughout.

 


Option: 4

The particle begins with a constant velocity, then experiences acceleration, and finally moves with another constant velocity.

The decreasing slope of the displacement-time graph indicates that the velocity of the particle is decreasing. This decreasing slope signifies that the particle's motion is decelerated or "retarded." As the slope continues to decrease, eventually reaching zero, it indicates that the particle comes to a complete stop.
