This question uses a diagram from the original paper, which isn't shown here. Open the full paper from the past papers archive to see it.

A[Diagram option A: velocity-time graph showing sinusoidal oscillation, starting at zero]

B[Diagram option B: velocity-time graph showing sinusoidal oscillation with flat peaks/troughs]

C[Diagram option C: velocity-time graph showing sharp, triangular oscillations]

D[Diagram option D: velocity-time graph showing sinusoidal oscillation with non-symmetrical peaks]

✓ Correct answer

D: [Diagram option D: velocity-time graph showing sinusoidal oscillation with non-symmetrical peaks]
