c) Impressed by this claim, Sherry buys one. She hops into her new Mercedes sports car and steps on the gas. She's an engineer and did the math later on; she discovered that her car's acceleration is 6.7 m/s². i) Is her car's acceleration faster or slower than the advertisement claims it should be? Do the math to prove and justify your answer. In seconds, how long did it actually take for Sherry's car to reach 60 mph (which is m/s your answer to Part A12
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.
