a girl observes the motion of a crab which makes every time a forward motion of 2 cm and reverse motion of 1 cm.if it takes a time of 1 second to move 1 cm.plot a graph to find how long it will take to touch a point 5 cm from the start.

see diagram.
So it takes 11 seconds for the crab to touch the 5 cm point from the start.
At the end of 3 seconds, the crab advances by 1 cm. At the end of 9 seconds, the crab advances to 3 cms. Now in the next two seconds , the crab crawls 2 cms. It touches the 5 cm point. So at 11th second, it touches 5 cm line.
But, of course, in the next second, i.e., it crawls back by 1 cm.
