Joey starts riding his scooter from his apartment to campus. He thinks it would be fun to make a graph of his position relative to time. By a weird coincidence, the graph is perfectly modeled by the equation 3t^2 -5t + 6 He tells his friend Andie that his average velocity for the second half of his trip was 39.2 units per time interval, because the slope formula says to do (256 - 60)/(5 -10) Is Joey correct?
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.
