Answer:

this question is passive part and its active will be : Our family visited the museum at the usual time

Explanation:

Active / Passive Voice Form

In an active sentence, the subject is before the predicate (verb and object).

e.g. Global warming, deforestation, and pollution destroy the earth’s natural resources.

           (Subject)                                               (Verb)                   (Object)

In a passive sentence, the subject of the sentence is placed after the verb in the object position.

e.g. The earth’s natural resources are destroyed by global warming, deforestation, and pollution.  

(Object in subject position)                (Verb)                              (Subject in object position)

The passive voice is formed using the verb “to be” + the past participle.  

Examples of the VERB “TO BE”: am, is, are, was, were, been, being

Examples of the PAST PARTICIPLE: seen, gotten, lived, worked, bought, taught, loved, caught, ect..      

Passive

 

She was being watched by the police.

 

The house is being taken care of by the neighbors.

 

A bomb was detonated in the hotel lobby.

 

The project will be completed before Saturday.

 

Active

 

The police were watching her.

 

The neighbors are taking care of the house.

 

Someone detonated a bomb in the hotel lobby.

 

Someone will complete the project before Saturday.

Answer:

The museum is visited by our family at the usual time.

Explanation:

If it was Our family visited the museum at the usual time it would be passive voice because the phrase "our family visited" means that they have already visited the museum, same for the other options, they are past tense because of the way they are worded. The museum is visited by our family at the usual time would be the best answer because  this means that the museum is being visited at that moment in time.
