Explanation:
In this problem we have to draw a velocity-time graph for an object travelling initially at -3 m/s, then slowing down and turning around.
In the graph, we see that the initial velocity at time t = 0 is
and it is negative, so below the x-axis.
Later, the object slows down: this means that the magnitude of its velocity increases, therefore (since the velocity is negative) the curve must go upward, approaching and reaching the x-axis (which corresponds to zero velocity).
After that, the object's velocity keep increasing, but now it is positive: this means that the object is travelling in a direction opposite to the initial direction, so it has turned around.
