A juggler throws a bowling pin straight up in the air. After the pin leaves his hand and while it is in the air, which statement is true? O The velocity of the pin is always in the same direction as its acceleration. O The velocity of the pin is never in the same direction as its acceleration. O The acceleration of the pin is zero. O The velocity of the pin is opposite its acceleration on the way up. O The velocity of the pin is in the same direction as its acceleration on the way up.
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.
