Description of the motion of the ship.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The slope of the position-time graph describes the speed or velocity of the ship.
The slope of the ship is constant and decreasing, so the speed or velocity of the ship is decreasing uniformly. The ship moves with the constant velocity and the motion of the ship is uniformly decreasing motion.
Conclusion:
The ship moves with the uniformly decreasing motion in the entire motion.
