While standing at the edge of the roof of a building, a man throws a stone upward with an initial speed of 7.00 m/s. The stone subsequently falls to the ground, which is 14 m below the point where the stone leaves his hand. At what speed does the stone impact the ground? Ignore air resistance and use g= 9.81 m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity. (See the diagram below.) Vyi = 7.00 m/s- Stone 14.0 m Vyf O a. 15 m/s O b. 12 m/s O c. 21 m/s O d. 24 m/s O e. 18 m/s
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.
