Distance covered by object is ____ to time.

directly proportional

The correct answer is option 2. directly proportional.

The relationship between distance covered by an object and time is directly proportional.

When two quantities are directly proportional, it means that if one quantity increases, the other quantity also increases by the same factor, and if one quantity decreases, the other quantity decreases by the same factor. In this case, as time increases, the distance covered by the object also increases proportionally. This relationship is commonly expressed using mathematical equations such as \( \text{distance} = \text{speed} \times \text{time} \) or \( \text{distance} = \text{velocity} \times \text{time} \).
