1. A particle initially located at the origin has an acceleration of a = 3j m/s: and an initial velocity of vo= 5i m/s. Find (a) the vector position and velocity at any time t and (b) the coordinates and speed of the particule at t = 2 s. 2. A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a building 35 m high. The ball strikes the ground at a point 80 m from the base of the building. Find (a) the time the ball is in flight, (b) its initial velocity, and (c) the x and y components velocity just before the ball strikes the ground.
Displacement, Velocity and Acceleration
In classical mechanics, kinematics deals with the motion of a particle. It deals only with the position, velocity, acceleration, and displacement of a particle. It has no concern about the source of motion.
Linear Displacement
The term "displacement" refers to when something shifts away from its original "location," and "linear" refers to a straight line. As a result, “Linear Displacement” can be described as the movement of an object in a straight line along a single axis, for example, from side to side or up and down. Non-contact sensors such as LVDTs and other linear location sensors can calculate linear displacement. Non-contact sensors such as LVDTs and other linear location sensors can calculate linear displacement. Linear displacement is usually measured in millimeters or inches and may be positive or negative.
