4. Diane dives in a pool moving at 7.6 m/s until reaching 8.42 m from the diving board. Solve the following: a. The average acceleration of the diver as she travels through the water b. Time the diver comes to a stop c. The speed of the diver after diving 5.87 m
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.

5. Chloe joined a running marathon for charity. She was trying to overtake another runner who was in
front of her. By doing so, she accelerates from 8.5 m/s to 10,4 m/s in 6s. Solve the following:
a. Chloe's acceleration
b. The distance travelled by Chloe
6. Jazzie is driving car and was travelling at 75 km/hr in a straight road. However, the car in front of
Jazzie which was driven by George suddenly stopped, so Jazzie had to press the brakes to avoid
any accidents. Jazzie begins to decelerate at a rate of 5.7 m/s'.Determine the following:
a. Jazzie's initial speed in mis
b. Time it takes to reach a complete stop
