An engineer picked two stones, one stone is held in his left hand and the other stone is held in his right hand. The stone in his left hand is thrown vertically upward from the ground with a velocity of 56.9 ft per sec. The stone in his right hand is thrown vertically upward after the engineer throws the first stone. The second stone has a velocity of 30-ft per sec. How far above the ground will the stones be at the same level?
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.
