SUBJECT: GENERAL PHYSICS 1 ACTIVITY: CREATE A STORY/ GRAPHICAL INTERPRETATION OF A CHILD WALKING ALONG A PATH USING THE GRAPH DRAWN BELOW. Graphical Interpretation of Velocity V Graph of the displacement against time for a Displacement child walking along D a path C O Time EXAMPLE: A woman drives her car to the store that is located straight down the street from her home. Halfway there she pauses for a traffic light, then continues to the store. After making her purchase she returns directly home, this time catching the green light so that she doesn't have to stop for the traffic light. Make a graph of the displacement of her car from home against time. Let the origin of the graph be at her home. The first segment shows increasing displacement with increasing time. At point A she stops for a traffic light so the displacement is constant with time until point B where she resumes moving toward the store. At point C she stops upon reaching the store. After completing her stopping until point D, she drives toward her home until point E
