1) each section can be mapped to a different mem location

2) .rodata: read only (constant) data

.rwdata: read/write data, i.e. all your program variables

.text : program code

For further information browse the Nios literature:

In particular you find the information about memory sections in the Nios Software Developer's HandBook
