A car travels with an initial velocity of 10 m/s.If it is decelerating at a rate of 3 m/s² , how far in meters does it travels before stopping?
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.
1. A car travels with an initial velocity of 10 m/s.If it is decelerating at a rate of 3 m/s² , how far in meters does it travels before stopping?
2. The speed of a flywheel whose diameter is 8 ft is increasing from rest at the uniform rate of 2 tad?/s². Determine the number of seconds elapsed and the number of radians turned through by the flywheel before a point on the rim has a tangential velocity of 1200 fps .
