A skier leaves the ramp of a ski jump with a velocity of 11.4m/s, 16.2 degrees above the horizontal. The slope below is inclined downwards at 53.3 degrees, and air resistance is negligible. Calculate the distance from the ramp to where the jumper lands (in meters). Calculate the velocity x component just before the landing (in m/s). Calculate the velocity y component just before the landing (in m/s).
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.
