dog sees a squirrel 13.6 m away. The dog runs toward the squirrel at 5.3 m/s. The squirrel was not paying attention and didn't noticethe dog until the dog was only 2.1 m away. If the tree is 11.67 m away from the squirrel (in the opposite direction of the dog), what is theminimum speed the squirrel will need to run at to get away (ie get to the tree at least at the same time the dog does)?
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.
