A supersonic jet flying at 20 m/s is accelerated uniformly at a rate of 23.1 m/s² for 19 seconus. (a) What is the jet's final velocity? (b) The speed of sound is 331 m/s in air. How many thies the speed of sound is the jets final speed?
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 new type of gun is being developed by engineers. The gun will be used to launch a rocket
as if they were bullets. One of the guns can give a small object a velocity of 5 km/s moving it
through only 10 cm.
a. What acceleration does the gun give this object?
meidong a
b. Over what time interval does the acceleration take place?](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fa107822d-83a6-4da9-b5a4-195ccbdd88ba%2F6267fd2d-8859-404d-96ad-58545d5f76a1%2Fntcnjp_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
