4. A computer animator is trying to make an animation of a rabbit rushing back and forth along a sidewalk. He decides to model the rabbit's velocity over time as shown in the following graph, where time is measured in seconds and velocity is measured in meters per second. velocity 3 Ampl 3 21 -14 -3 -4 <-5 2 time 9 10
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.

(Here, positive velocities indicate that the rabbit is heading east; negative velocities indicate that the
rabbit is heading west.)
(a) Suppose the rabbit starts at a position we'll call 0. Sketch a rough graph of the rabbit's position
as a function of time on the interval [0, 10]. We do not expect your graph to be perfect, but it
should accurately show whether the graph is increasing or decreasing and whether it is concave
up or concave down.
(b) At time 0, there was a squirrel sitting 2 meters east of the rabbit. Suppose that the squirrel's
velocity on [0, 10] is given by the same graph shown above. On your graph from (a), also sketch
the squirrel's position as a function of time.
(c) Write an equation describing the relationship between the rabbit's position function r(t) and the
squirrel's position function s(t).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F1ae6c5bc-489b-47b5-a6ac-78a144b94954%2Fc8ff66fb-a271-4642-857e-dacd724c6add%2Fecy2tj_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
