A golfer tees off on level ground, and hits the ball with an initial speed of 52 m/sec at an angle of 34° above the horizontal. Choose a coordinate system with the origin at the point where the ball is struck. a. Write parametric equations that model the path of the ball as a function of time t (in sec). b. For how long will the ball be in the air before it hits the ground? Round to the nearest hundredth of a second. c. Approximate the horizontal distance that the ball travels before it hits the ground. Round to the nearest foot. d. When is the ball at its maximum height? Find the exact value and an approximation to the nearest hundredth of a second. e. What is the maximum height? Round to the nearest foot.
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.
