How far did the pumpkin fall-freely? 2. What was the pumpkin's maximum speed? 3. What was the total time required for the pumpkin to hit the ground?
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.

A student drops a pumpkin out of a helicopter from a height of 420m.
Approximate the motion by assuming that the pumpkin falls freely for the first
4.00s then maintains a consant velocity until hitting the ground.
