An image showing a clear and calm lake with five different colored motorboats lined up at the start line as if ready for a race. Each of the motorboats is sleek and aerodynamically designed. In the backdrop, there's a beautiful orange sunset reflecting off the water, casting shadows and light beams intermingling with the peaceful waves. Beside the lake, there's a scientist looking at a clipboard, graphing acceleration versus force for each of the motorboats. Please note, no text or specific calculations are depicted in this image.

Five motorboats are being tested to see which reaches the highest velocity in the same amount of time. After graphing the acceleration versus force for each motorboat, the graph is a sloped line with a y-intercept of zero. Which statement is correct about these motorboats?(1 point)

All five motorboats have the same mass, which cannot be calculated from the graph.

All five motorboats have the same mass, which can be calculated from the graph.

All five motorboats have the same final velocity, which cannot be calculated from the graph.

All five motorboats have the same mass, which can be calculated from the graph. :)

This is because if the graph has a y-intercept of 0, it is basically saying that they all start at the same place. To start at the same place they all have to have the same mass, otherwise some may start later in the graph. :))

Lets go brandon

Its funny 'cause the one who puts the answer will probably never know if it helped because he'll probably never come back.

What is the correct answer?

Lol your awesome the post above me.

F /a is constant?

but we know F = m a
so F/a = m
so
m is constant, the slope of the graph.
