this image is from my practise textbook, and the following question i cant do it A girl throws a ball onto the roof of a house, as illustrated in Figure 4-36, and prepares to catch the ball with a baseball glove held 1.0 m above the ground. The ball rolls off the roof with a speed of 3.2 m/s. (a) After leaving the roof, how long will the ball take to land in her glove? (Numeric Answer) (b) How far from the horizontal edge of the roof should she hold her glove? (Numeric Answer) (c) What is the ball’s velocity as it reaches her glove ( Numeric Answer) from ----m/s to below the horizontal.
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.
