Aurora and Norma decide to walk to school. They must walk 3 kilometers south on one street and then 2 kilometers west on another to get to their school. If they could have walked directly to school from home, without following streets, how many kilometers would their trip have been? O 3.3 km O 3.6 km O 2.5 km O 2.2 km Submit Answer
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.
