2. A record of travel along a straight path is as follows: Segment 1: Start from rest with a constant acceleration of 2.77 m/s² for 15.0 s Segment 2: Maintain a constant velocity for the next 2.05 min Segment 3: Apply a constant negative acceleration of 29.47 m/s2 for 4.39 s. i. What was the total displacement for the trip? What were the average speeds for segments 1, 2 and 3 of the trip, as well as for the complete trip? ii.
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.
