Problem

Four students draw different speed–time graphs for a ball they believe is moving in uniform circular motion. Which graph could be correct? a) A sine wave oscillating between 3 m/s3\,\text{m/s} and 7 m/s7\,\text{m/s} b) A horizontal line at 0 m/s0\,\text{m/s} for the entire time c) A horizontal line at 5 m/s5\,\text{m/s} starting from t=0t=0 d) A straight line rising from 0 m/s0\,\text{m/s} to 5 m/s5\,\text{m/s} in 5 s5\,\text{s}
