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.

Question

Part A
Cars A and B are racing each other along the same
straight road in the following manner: Car A has a head
start and is a distance DA beyond the starting line at
t= 0. The starting line is at x = 0. Car A travels at a
constant speed vA. Car B starts at the starting line but
has a better engine than Car A, and thus Car B travels at
a constant speed vB, which is greater than VA.
How long after Car B started the race will Car B catch up with Car A?
Express the time in terms of given quantities.
