Translating graphs from the experiment


Graph 1b (Position-Time Graph)
(picture taken from Cindy Ren's group)

1. Stay static at a distance of 1m for 1 s.
2. Walk 1.5m in 2s (0.75 m/s) away from the origin.
3. Stay static at 2.5m for 3 s.
4. Walk 0.75m in 1.5 s (0.5 m/s) back towards the origin.
5. Stay static at 1.75m for 2.5 s.

Graph 1c (Position-Time Graph)
1. Start 3m away from the origin and Walk back towards the origin at a rate of 1.5m in 3 s (0.5 m/s)
2. Stay static at a distance of 1.5m for 1 s.
3. Walk quickly back towards the origin at a rate of 1m in 1 second (1 m/s).
4. Stay static at a distance of 0.5m for 2 s.
5. Walk quickly away from the origin at a rate of 2.5m in 3 seconds (0.83 m/s)

Graph 1d (Velocity-Time Graph)
1. Remain static for 2 s.
2. Walk away from the origin at 0.5 m/s for 3 s
3. Stay still for 2 s.
4. Walk towards the origin at 0.5 m/s for 3 s.


Graph 1e (Velocity-Time Graph)
1. Speed up at 0.5 m/s in 4 s away from the origin.
2. Continue walking away from the origin at 0.5 m/s for 2 s.
3. Walk back towards the origin at 0.4 m/s for 3 s.
4. Stop and remain static for 1 s.

Graph 1f (Position-Time Graph)
1. Begin at a distance of 0.8m from the origin and walk away at a rate of 1m in 3.5 s (0.29 m/s)
2. Remain static at a distance of 1.8m for 3.25 s.
3. Continue walking away from the origin at a rate of 1.4m in 2.25 s (0.62 m/s)
