SUMMARY

The discussion centers on deciphering a motion diagram, where the user initially struggled to interpret the data correctly. The solution involved arranging the values in the order indicated by the arrows and rounding the numbers to two significant figures. The final correct sequence of values is 1200, 980, 830, 750, 700, 650, 600, 500, 300, 0.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of motion diagrams and their components
  • Knowledge of significant figures and rounding rules

This is what I was able to get from the problem but it is clearly wrong and I have no idea what the right way to go about this would be. Thank you in advance for your help.

I figured it out. I case anyone was wondering I had to put it in the order the arrows were pointing and I had to round 825 and 975 to have two significant figures so they would be 830 and 980.

The correct answer is: 1200,980,830,750,700,650,600,500,300,0
