3.17 Figure 3.21 shows the x-t plot of one-dimensional motion of a particle. Is it correct to say from the graph that the particle moves in a straight line for t < 0 and on a parabolic path for t >0? If not, suggest a suitable physical context for this graph.

3.17 For t<0, we cannot say that the particle moved in a straight line and for t>0 on a parabolic path as the x-t graph does not indicate. Instead, this x-t graph denotes a particle is dropped from a height at t=0
