Can a car traveling in the -x direction experience an acceleration in the -x direction? If so, what is happening to the car? A Yes. It would be slowing down. No. Objects can only accelerate in the +direction. No. Objects can't move in the direction. D No. Objects can only accelerate in the opposite direction of their motion. E Yes. It would be speeding up .
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.
