A test rocket at ground level is fired straight up from rest with a net upward acceleration of 20 m/s2. After 4.0 s, the motor burns out, but the rocket continues in freefall motion with insignificant air resistance. What maximum height does the rocket reach? Hint: Calculate the position and velocity of the rocket at burnout and use those as the initial conditions for the rise to maximum height. O 330 m 490 m O 320 m 410 m
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.
