The position of an object subjected to constant acceleration can be described by the following $$\begin{array} { l }
\text { function: } \quad x ( t ) = x _ { 0 } + v _ { 0 } t + \frac { 1 } { 2 } a t ^ { 2 } \
\text { where } x = \text { position } ( \mathrm { m } ) \
x _ { 0 } = \text { initial position } ( \mathrm { m } ) \
v _ { 0 } = \text { initial velocity } ( \mathrm { m } / \mathrm { s } ) \
a = \text { acceleration } \left( \mathrm { m } / \mathrm { s } ^ { \wedge } 2 \right) \
t = \text { time } ( \mathrm { sec } )
\end{array}$$ Which type of mathematical model is used here to describe the object's position?
A)Linear model
B)Nonlinear model
C)Exponential model
D)Trigonometric model
