Idealised velocity-time model: +6 m/s for 3 seconds, then -2 m/s for 4 seconds. Positive marks the chosen forward direction. Rectangular signed area gives displacement; total absolute area gives distance. The instantaneous switch is a mathematical idealisation, not a physically finite-acceleration transition.
