A The velocity of the car is proportional to its displacement. B The driver is stepping on the accelerator pedal. C The driver is stepping on the brake pedal. D The car always travels the same distance in the same length of time. E The car's acceleration is decreasing. If we let s(t) be the position of the car at time t, and let denote a constant, match the statements above with the following mathematical statements below. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Consider these statements written in ordinary language describing the forward and backward motion of a car in a straight line: ? ? ✪ 1. s" < (and s'> 0 2. S"<0 and s' < 0 3. s' = ks 4. s" <0 5. s"> 0) and s' < 0 6. s' < 0 7. s"> and s' > 0 8. s' = k 9. s<0
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.
