A maglev train accelerates at a rate of 4 km/hr/s. Accelerating from rest it can reach its top speed in about 81 seconds. What is its top speed? The final velocity is: How far has the train traveled after 81 seconds? The distance traveled is:
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.
A maglev train accelerates at a rate of 4 km/hr/s. Accelerating from rest it can reach its top speed in about 81 seconds. What is its top speed?
The final velocity is:
How far has the train traveled after 81 seconds?
The distance traveled is:
Given
Acceleration of the train is
Initial speed of the train is
Time taken to reach to the top speed is
We have to find the final velocity and distance travelled in 81 s.
