A student records the position of a trolley and obtains the following data: Time

t

(s): 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 Distance

s

(m): 0, 4, 8, 12, 16 If the distance–time graph is plotted using this data, what will be the slope of the line segment between

t = 2\,\text{s}

and

t = 6\,\text{s}

? (a)

4\,\text{m/s}

(b)

1\,\text{m/s}

(c)

2\,\text{m/s}

(d)

3\,\text{m/s}
