Concept explainers

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.

Introduction, To answer the question How do things move? we can provide the velocity of a Oojecwhat
when an object is accelerating and how to calculate the rate of acceleration.
Examples of Acceleration:
The following motions describe objects that are NOT accelerating
A bird flies at a constant speed of 10 m/s in a constant direction of North
A train travels at a constant velocity of 45 mi/hr South
A car travels along a straight section of highway at a constant 100 km/hr
The following motion describes objects that ARE accelerating
A bird, flying at a speed of 5 m/s, speeds up to 10 m/s in a constant direction of North
A person runs at a constant speed of 3 mi/h while turning from the North to the East
A car travels along a curve while slowing down to 60 km/h from 100 km/h
Question 1: For each of the following descriptions of motion, state whether the description indicates a
speed, a velocity, an acceleration, or none of these.
