. A ball is directly thrown upward with a velocity of 5 m/s. (a) Find the maximum height reached in m. (b) Find the total time of flight in s. (c) What will be the final velocity v of the ball just before it hits the ground? (Neglect air resistance.)
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.
3. A ball is directly thrown upward with a velocity of 5 m/s.
(a) Find the maximum height reached in m.
(b) Find the total time of flight in s.
(c) What will be the final velocity v of the ball just before it hits the ground? (Neglect air resistance.)
