You start out by driving 82 miles north in 4 hours and 36 minutes, and then you stop and park for a while. Finally you drive another 60 miles south in 3 hours and 11 minutes. The average velocity for your entire trip was 2.26 miles per hour to the north. How much time did you spend parked? 1 hour 56 minutes 3 hours 53 minutes 0 hours 58 minutes 9 hours 43 minu
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.
