Concept explainers

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.

Step 1

Given data:

The initial horizontal velocity is $u_{x} = 16 m / s$
The initial vertical velocity is $u_{y} = 12 m / s$

Part a:

Calculating the speed when the ball hit the ground as follows:

$\begin{array}{rcl} v & = & \sqrt{{u_{x}}^{2} + {u_{y}}^{2}} \\ = & \sqrt{16^{2} + 12^{2}} \\ = & 20 m / s \end{array}$

During the siege of Constantinople that led to its conquest by the Ottomans in 1453, the Hungarian engineer Orban built a set of bombards (primitive cannon) to throw enormous stones at the city to breach its walls. The largest of these could throw a 300 kg stone a distance x = 2 km. Assume that the stone was launched at an angle of 0 = 45 degrees above the horizontal; in the absence of air resistance, this gives the largest range. a) What speed did the stone have to be launched at to achieve this range? b) How long was the ball in the air? c) How fast was the ball traveling at the apex of its flight?

The archerfish uses a remarkable method for catching insects sitting on branches or leaves above the waterline. The fish rises to the surface and then shoots out a stream of water precisely aimed to knock the insect off its perch into the water, where the archerfish gobbles it up. Scientists have measured the speed of the water stream exiting the fish’s mouth to be 3.7 m/s. An archerfish spots an insect sitting 19 cm above the waterline and a horizontal distance of 30 cm away. The fish aims its stream at an angle of 39° from the waterline. Does the stream hit its mark?
