5. A plane flies with a velocity of 54 m/s East through a 14 m/s cross wind blowing the plane South. Find the resultant velocity at which it travels. (Scale: 1 cm = 4 m/s Use Tip-to-Tail Method)
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.
![1. Determine the resultant of the following four vector displacements.
(Scale: 1cm = 10 m
Use Tip-to-Tail Method)
50 m @ 30°Northeast
35 m North
25 m West
20 m South
2. A car is driven 210 km West and then 80 km @ 45° Northwest. What is the
displacement of the car from the point of origin?
(Scale: 1 cm= 20 km
Use Tip-to-Tail Method)
3. Two forces, 200 N and 250 N act at the same point of an object and make
an angle of 45° with each other. The 200 N acts West while the 250 N acts
Southwest. Find their resultant.
(Scale: 1 cm = 50 N
Use Parallelogram Method)
4. An ambitious hiker walks 30 km West and 40 km South in a day. Find the
hiker's resultant displacement.
(Scale: 1 cm = 5 km
Use Tip-to-Tail Method)
5. A plane flies with a velocity of 54 m/s East through a 14 m/s cross wind
blowing the plane South. Find the resultant velocity at which it travels.
(Scale: 1 cm = 4 m/s
Use Tip-to-Tail Method)](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F96b97ee3-5816-4275-a8c6-a8b184d30121%2Ff2657497-63b7-4226-89af-dc9df9a11d98%2Fkd77e5k_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
