# Choose the Correct Statement#

## Part 1#

A particle’s path follows the trajectory shown in the figure. Which of the following statements is correct?

##### Long Description of image: Figure of the particle's trajectory.
A cartesian plane is used. The particle starts at a point with a negative x-coordinate and a positive y-coordinate. The graph increases uniformly and then starts to increase at a slower rate until it crosses the y-axis in a horizontal line. From there, it starts to increase at an increasing rate until a uniform increase (a straight line) is reached.

Long description ends.

• The particle’s instantaneous velocity at $$x = 0$$ is zero.

• No information about the particle’s velocity or acceleration can be found from its trajectory.

• The particle’s instantaneous velocity at $$x= 0$$ points in either the $$\hat{\imath}$$ or the $$-\hat{\imath}$$ direction.

• The particle’s instantaneous acceleration at $$x= 0$$ is zero.

• The particle’s instantaneous velocity at $$x= 0$$ is positive.
