An airplane has an air speed of 267 miles per hour and a compass heading of 140°. A steady wind of 54 miles per hour is blowing in the direction of 183°. What is the plane's true speed relative to the ground? What is its compass heading relative to the ground? W, 270° N, 0° 081 09 S 1808 90 60 100 COLOFO
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.
