2. Road Trip: The location of a car is marked at equal 1.0 second intervals on the map below. Address the following: (a) What is the magnitude of the car's velocity (i.e., what is its speed) in the interval between moment 2 and moment 3? (b) What is the direction of the car's velocity between moments 2 and 3? (c) Find the magnitude and direction of the car's velocity between moments 7 and 8. (d) Is the car accelerating around moment ?? If co what
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.
The position of a car at 1 second and 10 m intervals is given in the given graph.
Top indicates north while right indicates east.
Between moments 2 and 3, there are three intervals, and thus the car travels a distance of 30 m and a time of 3 seconds.
The speed of the car between these moments is given as
