Which of the following would produce an acceleration in a car? Consider it to be initially travelling at a constant speed to the East. O gas pedal O (all of these options could be called an accelerator). O steering wheel Obrake pedal
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.
Acceleration is depending on change in velocity.
Velocity is a vector quantity, hence the change velocity can be achieved by either changing the magnitude of speed or direction or combined effect
