A black mamba snake has a length of 2.60 m and a top speed of 4.40 m/s. Suppose a mongoose and a black mamba find themselves nose to nose. In an effort to escape, the snake accelerates past the mongoose at 8.56 m/s² from rest. How much time ttop does it take the snake to reach its top speed? How far dsnake does the snake travel in that time? How much time treact does the mongoose have to react before the black mamba's tail passes the mongoose's nose? ttop = dsnake = treact = m S
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.
