You are in your brand new Porsche 911. I can go from 0 to 60 mph in 4.1 s! How far will you have traveled in those 4.1 s? (please answer in m and miles...) what was your acceleration rate? What was your average velocity in m/s? If 1 g= 9.8 m/s^2 how many g's did you do? Oh No a deer!! Now lets say you slam on the brakes and decelerate at a rate of 15 m/s^2, How long and how far will you travel before you can come to a complete stop? (time and distance required to halt =____
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.
