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.

The world long jump record is 8.95 m (Mike Powell, USA, 1991). Treated as a projectile, what is the maximum range, in meters, obtainable by a person if he or she has a take-off speed of 8.2 m/s? Assume the motion is over level ground and the initial velocity makes an angle of 45° with the horizontal.
In a circus act, an acrobat rebounds upward from the surface of a trampoline at the exact moment that another acrobat, perched 9.0 m above him, releases a ball from rest. While still in flight, the acrobat catches the ball just as it reaches him. If he left the trampoline with a speed of 8.0 m/s, how long is he in the air before he catches the ball?
Two students are on a balcony 19.5 m above the street. One student throws a ball vertically downward at 16.6 m/s; at the same instant the other student throws a ball vertically upward at the same speed. The second ball just misses the balcony on the way down. (a) What is the difference in their time in air? (b) What is the velocity of each ball as it strikes the ground? (c) How far apart are the balls 0.900 s after they are thrown?
In a local bar, a customer slides an empty beer mug down the slippery counter for a refill. The bartender is momentarily distracted and does not see the mug, which slides off of the counter and strikes the floor 2.11 m from the base of the counter.

Initially at rest, John catches a football at the 20 yard line, and immediately begins running forward with an acceleration of 2.3 m/s/s. At the instant John caught the ball, Bill (a player on the other team) happens to be 18.9 m away and he is running directly toward John at a constant 5.7 m/s. If the players run directly toward each other, then how far from the 20 yard line will Bill tackle John?
A rocket is fired at a speed of 83.0 m/s from ground level, at an angle of 45.0° above the horizontal. The rocket is fired toward an 12.5-m high wall, which is located 21.0 m away. The rocket attains its launch speed in a negligibly short period of time, after which its engines shut down and the rocket coasts. By how much does the rocket clear the top of the wall? Number i Units
A juggler throws balls straight up in the air. After the balls leave his hand and while it is in the air, explain WHY each of the following four statement is FALSE. Write the right answer. (a) The velocity of the ball is always in the same direction as it's acceleration. (b) The velocity of the ball is never in the same direction as it's acceleration. (c) The acceleration of the ball is zero. (d) The velocity of the pin is the same direction as it's acceleration on the way up.
Dock diving is great form of athletic competition for dogs of all shapes and sizes. Sheba, the American Pit Bull Terrier, runs and jumps off the dock with an initial speed of 9.02 m/s at an angle of 25.0° with respect to the surface of the water. Sheba begins at a height of 0.840 m above the surface of the water. What is her total time of flight up until the instant before she hits the water? Express your answer in seconds.

Review Conceptual Example 15 before attempting this problem. Two identical pellet guns are fired simultaneously from the edge of a cliff. These guns impart an initial speed of 27.3 m/s to each pellet. Gun A is fired straight upward, with the pellet going up and then falling back down, eventually hitting the ground beneath the cliff. Gun B is fired straight downward. In the absence of air resistance, how long after pellet B hits the ground does pellet A hit the ground
The position of a particle along the positive x-axis is given by the following function r = 1t3 +14t2 +4, find the speed of the particle at time t=17, where t is in seconds and r is in cm.

A person stands on a diving board and tosses a stone into a swimming pool. The stone is thrown from a height of 2.9 m above the water surface with a velocity of 2.8 m/s at an angle of 38° above the horizontal. As the stone strikes the water surface, it immediately slows down to exactly half the speed it had when it struck the water and maintains that speed while in the water. After the stone enters the water, it moves in a straight line in the direction of the velocity it had when. it struck the water. If the pool is 4 m deep, how much time elapses between when the stone is thrown and when it strikes the bottom of the pool? ttotal = S
