For the pantograph mechanism in Fig.Q3c, AX = BX = XD = XC = CE = DE = a = 0.6m. The sliders A and B move towards point O with the same constant speed u = 2m/s which causes points X and E to move rightwards along the x-axis. Determine the speed v of point E when OB = AO = 0.8a.
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.
