Answer:

Therefore the correct answer is B. Scatterplot

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an exercise in kinematics, in a measurement of distance against time, the process is described by the expression

x = vo t + ½ a t2

where vo is the initial velocity. At the acceleration of the body, x the displacement and t the time.

Depending on the type of movement, a can be zero or different from zero.

In general, all these data are graphed in a DISPERSION graph where the distance is on the abscissa axis and the ordinate axis is time.

Therefore the correct answer is B
