A cargo plane is moving with a horizontal velocity of v= +248 m/s at a height of y = 990 m above level ground as shown in the figure below when it releases a package. Ignoring air resistance, how much time, in seconds, will it take the package to reach the ground? (Express your answer to the nearest tenth of a second.) S +1/ +X Dy Dy Vx
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.
