2. The graph shows the x-velocity as a function of time of a cart on a ramped tilted at a small angle. You give the cart a push for 0.5 sec, after you release it, the cart goes up the ramp (+x) slowing as it goes until it comes to a momentary stop and then goes back down the ramp with increasing speed. You then catch it and bring it to a stop. a. How far has the cart moved when you stop pushing? b. What is the furthest distance the cart travels from its starting paint? c. What is the x-acceleration of the cart while it is being brought to a stop? d. What is the x-acceleration while the cart it is going up and down the ramp without you touching it?

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.
