A block is launched up a frictionless 37.5 incline. The block travels 1.5 m up (along, parallel to) the incline before coming to a stop and beginning to slide back down. Find the following: Ga) the velocity of the block at the top of its path in m/s (b) the velocity of the block when it has made it back to its starting point (answer in m/s, remember sign matters). (c) the total distance traveled by the block (in meters) from when it was launched until it returned to its starting position. Remember not to try to include units. Use g-9.8 m/s^2
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.
