1. As part of an exercise program, a woman walks south at a speed of 2.00 m/s for 60.0 minutes. She then turns around and walks north a distance 3000 m in 25.0 minutes. What is the woman's average velocity during her entire motion? A) 0.824 m/s south B) 1.93 m/s south C) 2.00 m/s south D) 1.79 m/s south
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.
