A car accelerates with a constant acceleration of 1.5 m. s2 along a long straight road. How long does it take the car to accelerate from 100 kph to 110 kph, and how far does it travel while doing so? [Hint: watch your units and sig figs! Because there is no other information, take the speeds as three significant figures] It takes seconds to accelerate to 110 kph. While accelerating, the car travels _m. Separate your answers with a comma. Example: a, b Enter answer here
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.
