The acceleration of a vehicle takes the form du/dt = 1.2 -0.06u where u is the vehicle speed in m/sec. The vehicle is traveling at 14m/sec at time To Determine the following: 1. Time at which the vehicle attains a speed of 20m/sec. 2. Acceleration of the vehicle after 5 seconds 3. Distance traveled by the vehicle when accelerated to a speed of 20 m/sec.
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.
