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

the canon on a battleship can fire a shell a
maximum distance of 48.5 km. (a-c)
The cannon on a battleship can fire a shell a maximum distance of 48.5 km.
(a) Calculate the initial velocity of the shell in meters per second. (Enter the magnitude.)
m/s
(b) What maximum height in meters does it reach? (At its highest, the shell is above a substantial part of the atmosphere-but air resistance is not really negligible as assumed to
make this problem easier. Assume the shell has been fired so as to maximize horizontal distance.)
(c) The ocean is not flat, because the earth is curved. Assume that the radius of the Earth is 6.37 x 10 km. How many meters lower will its surface be 48.5 km from the ship along a
horizontal line parallel to the surface at the ship?
Does your answer imply that error introduced by the assumption of a flat Earth in projectile motion is significant here? (Select all that apply.)
O The error could be significant compared to the size of a target.
The error could be significant compared to the distance of travel.
The error is insignificant compared to the size of a target.
the error is insignificant compared to the distance of travel.

(a) A soccer player kicks a rock horizontally off a 32 m high cliff into a pool of water. If the player hears the sound of the splash 2.72 s later, what was the initial speed given to the rock (in m/s)? Assume the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s. 24.27 x The time given in the problem can be divided into two intervals: the time for the rock to hit the water and the time for the sound to return to the kicker. m/s (b) What If? If the temperature near the cliff suddenly falls to 0°C, reducing the speed of sound to 331 m/s, what would the initial speed of the rock have to be (in m/s) for the soccer player to hear the sound of the splash 2.72 s after kicking the rock? 23.44 Enter a number.
