2-18 A plane flies for 3 h and reaches a point 600 km north and 800 km east of its starting point. Find the direction and magnitude of its average velocity 2-19 A plane flies south at 500 km h¹ for 2 h and then flies west at 500 km h west for 1 h. (a) What is its average speed? (b) What are the mag- nitude and direction of its average velocity?
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.
