5a. An airplane maintains a speed of 693 km/h relative to the air it is flying through as it makes a trip to a city 724 km away to the north. (Assume north is the positive y-direction and east is the positive x-direction.) What time interval is required for the trip if the plane flies through a headwind blowing at 32.4 km/h toward the south? h
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.
