A calculus book is thrown downward from the top of building-V, 168 ft high, at an angle of 60° with the horizontal. a. How far from the base of the building will the textbook land if its initial speed is 80 ft/sec? b. Will the textbook hit the cafeteria, if the cafeteria is 60 ft away from the base of the building-V on our campus?

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.
