Interpret and sketch distance-time graphs
A robot moves across a room. The vertical value gives distance from the reference point at each time
Model the motion along one straight route on one side of the reference point. Each moving segment has constant speed with no unshown reversals. S1, S2 and so on label the segments in time order
| Leg | Time (s) | Distance (m) |
|---|---|---|
| S1 | 0 to 3 | 0 to 1 |
| S2 | 3 to 7 | 1 to 1 |
