Consider the coordinate system shown above. At x = -1 block is a cafeteria, at x=0 blocks is a dorm, the physics building is at x = + 2 blocks and the library is at x = +3 blocks. The positive x direction points east. Shown below is a graph of a trip made by a physics student.
Part A
Describe the student's trip in words that would be understandable to someone who is not taking physics. Give the person information about where the student goes and how fast the student moves to get there (no numbers are needed, but give comparisons like "faster" or "slower").
Solution
System:
The student will be treated as a point particle.
Interactions:
Not relevant for this model.
