A car laps a race track in 84 seconds. The speed of the car at each 6-second interval is determined by using a radar gun and is given from the beginning of the lap, in feet/second, by the entries in the following table. Time 06 12 18 24 30 Speed 124 134 148 156 147 133 How long is the track? 36 121 42 48 54 60 66 72 78 84 109 99 85 78 89 104 116 123
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.
