Packages enter the 15.9-ft chute at A with a speed of 4.5 ft/sec and have a 0.26g acceleration from A to B. If the packages come to rest at C, calculate the constant acceleration a (positive if it speeds up, negative if it slows down) of the packages from B to C. Also find the time required for the packages to go from A to C. 15.9' B 12.8' C
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.
