A particle moves in a straight line with a constant acceleration of 2.33 m/s2for 6s, zero acceleration for the next 5s, and a constant decceleration of 1.45 m/s2for 4s. Knowing that the particle starts from the origin and that its velocity is 20.11 m/s during the zero acceleration time interval . Determine the distance (in meters) travelled by the particle after 10 seconds. Round off only on the final answer expressed in three decimal places.
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.
