Explanation of Solution

Introduction: A motion diagram is used to represent the position of a moving object after every equal time intervalin a single diagram. The motion diagram is the pictorial representation of the motion of the object and describes the motion of the object.

Consider a boy walks from home to school.

The motion diagram for the motion of the boy is shown below:
