Strike-slip - A Dip-slip D Fault plane Rock faults are ruptures along which opposite faces of rock have slid past each other. In the above diagram, points A and B coincided before the rock in the foreground slid down to the right. The net displacement AB is along the plane of the fault. The horizontal component of AB is called the "strike-slip" AC. The component of AB that is directed down the plane of the fault is the "dip-slip" AD. Part a What is the magnitude of the net dis- placement AB if the strike-slip is 22.0m and the dip-slip is 17.0m? Part b If the plane of the fault is inclined at an angle ø = 52.0° to the horizontal, what is the vertical component of AB ?
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.
