iii) 1. Mathematically, the position of the object in one dimensional motion can be expressed as follows:
x = f(t).
2. Here, distance x is the function of time t.
3. Conclusion :
The origin of time or position axis can be shifted to any point on the respective axis.
The time, distance measured to the right of the origin is taken as positive and to the left of origin is
taken as negative.
