The house, school, and diner are on the same street. The house is 820 ft from the school and 0.6 miles from the diner. Assume the positive direction is to the LEFT ←. If you start from the diner, head to the house, and then go back to the diner in 2 hr., what is your average velocity in cm/s to two significant figures? HE SCHOOL 8 DINER
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.
