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.

A driver is traveling 18.4 m/s when she sees a red light ahead. Her car is capable of decelerating at a rate of 3.55 m/s^2 If it takes her 0.390s to get the brakes on and she is 20.0m from the intersection when she sees the light, will she be able to stop in time? No. How far from the beginning of the intersection will she be?
A motorcycle officer hidden at an intersection observes a car driven by an oblivious driver who ignores a stop sign and continues through the intersection at a constant speed. The police officer takes off in pursuit 2.0s after the car has passed the stop sign. She accelerates at 4.2 m/s^2 until her speed is 110 km/h until she catches the car. The car is 1.4 km from the intersection. a) How long did it take for the officer to catch the car? b) How fast was the car traveling?

At the instant the traffic light goes green, a car waiting at the intersection starts ahead with an acceleration of 2.5 m/s2. At the same instant, a bus coming from behind moving at 12.0 m/s passes the car. When will the car catch up with the bus? Where will the car catch up with the bus?
Determine the time when the deceleration becomes zero. Determine the stopping distance. Determine the speed of the train before the brakes were applied.
At the instant the traffic light goes green, a car waiting at the intersection starts ahead with an acceleration of 2.5m/s2. At the same instant, a bus coming from behind moving at 12.0 m/s passes the car. When and where will the car catch up with the bus?
In 1967, New Zealander Burt Munro set the world record for an Indian motorcycle, on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, with a maximum speed of 183.58 mi/h. The one‐way course was 5.00 mi long. Acceleration rates are often described by the time it takes to reach 60.0 mi/h from rest. If this time was 4.00 s, and Burt accelerated at this rate until he reached his maximum speed, a. how long did it take Burt to complete the course? b. Sketch position vs time, velocity vs. time, and acceleration vs. time graphs for the race.

Ima Rushin can travel from Milwaukee Avenue to the school entrance gate at a constant speed of 22.5 m/s when the lights are green and there is no traffic. On Wednesday, Ima is stopped by a red light at Landwehr Road. She decelerates at -3.95 m/s/s, waits for 45.0 seconds before the light turns green and accelerates back up to speed at 4.91 m/s/s. a. Determine the total time required to decelerate, stop and accelerate back up to speed.b. Determine the amount of time the red light costs the driver (compared to if the car had not been stopped by the red light).
