CHECK YOUR UNDERSTANDING #2 A. In doing this task, you can ask help from other members of the family. Solve the problems below. You are required to show complete solution. Put your final answer inside a box with the correct final unit of measurement. You owned a car. The speedometer of your car moving east reads 60 km/h. It passes another car that travels west at 60 km/h. Do both cars have the same speed? Do they have same velocity? Why? Your dog is chasing a bird in your backyard. It runs 1om to the north, then turns, and runs 20 m toward the west. Find the distance travelled by the dog. What is its displacement? 1. 2. What is the acceleration of a motorcycle that accelerates from 5 m/s to 3. 15 m/s due south in 4 seconds?
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.
