In a velocity–time graph, which type of line represents motion with no change in velocity?
Horizontal straight line
The slope of a velocity-time graph gives the acceleration of the object.
If the velocity does not change, the acceleration is zero, so the slope is zero and the graph is a line parallel to the time axis.
A slanted straight line shows uniform acceleration, while a curve shows non-uniform acceleration.
Hence, the answer is Horizontal straight line.
