The table below shows data (position or velocity) for 8 different objects. Let south be the positive direction & north be the negative direction. Based on the data, determine whether each object SPED UP THE ENTIRE TIME, SLOWED DOWN THE ENTIRE TIME, or TRAVELED AT A CONSTANT VELOCITY. For each scenario (sped up, slowed down, & constant velocity) choose all that apply. Elapsed Time Velocity Velocity Velocity Velocity Velocity Velocity Velocity Velocity of object of object of object of object of object of object of object of object 3 4 5n 6. 7 8 (min) (m/s) (ft/s) (in/s) (km/h) (ft/min) (mm/s) (mi/h) (in/min) 59 94 -95 -95 11 94 -76 -89 1 50 94 -95 -102 20 94 -70 -89 41 94 -95 -109 29 94 -64 -89 32 94 -95 -116 38 94 -58 -89 23 94 -95 -123 47 94 -52 -89
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.
