pounces straight up from a diving board, avoiding the diving board on the way down, and falls Teet first into a pool. She starts with a velocity of 3.35 m/s and her takeoff point is 1.80 m above the pool. a. What is her highest point above the board? b. How long a time are her feet in the air? c. What is her velocity when her feet hit the water? m/s
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.
![Hint 1 Hint 2
A diver bounces straight up from a diving board, avoiding the diving board on the way down, and falls
Teet first into a pool. She starts with a velocity of 3.35 m/s and her takeoff point is 1.80 m above the
pool.
a. What is her highest point above the board?
b. How long a time are her feet in the air?
c. What is her velocity when her feet hit the water?](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F0da95474-4618-47f0-9f0f-17505675dd41%2F000013cb-ab95-4f27-a2a5-52a4a0b8b559%2Ffx00hdn_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
