A daring 51 kg swimmer dives off a ciff with a running horizontal leap, as shown in the figure below.(Figure 1) Figure 1 of 1 What must her minimum speed be just as she leaves the top of the cliff so that she will miss the ledge at the bottom, which is L-1.90 m wide and h-9.50 m below the top of the cliff? Express your answer in meters per second to three significant figures. Π−| ΑΣΦ Submit Provide Feedback Request Answer ↑ ? m/s Next >
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.
