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.

Professional golfers can drive the ball over 200 m. While air resistance is significant, its effects are nearly canceled because lift is gained from backspin on the ball, and so a reasonable description of the ball’s trajectory is obtained if air resistance is neglected. Suppose a golfer hits a ball 200 m on level ground, giving it an initial velocity at an angle of 45o. The duration of the impact of the club and ball has been measured to be 1.00 ms. a) Calculate the velocity of the ball just after it is struck b) What is the 0.0450 kg ball's change in momentum?
You can perform a popular trick by dropping any peso bill (Ex. 500 peso bill )lengthwise through the thumb and forefinger of a classmate. Tell your classmate to grab the peso bill as fast as possible and he/she can keep the money if he/she catches it. The length of the peso bill is 15.7 cm and the average human reaction time is about 0.20 s. Will your classmate catch the bill and keep the money?

The smal archerfish Dength 20 to 25 cm) lives in brackish waters of Southeast Asia from India to the Philippines. This aptly named creature captures its prey by shooting a stream of water drops at an insect. either flying or at rest. The bug falls into the water and the fish gobbles it up. The archerfish has high accuracy at distances of 1.2 m to 1.5 m, and it sometimes makes hits at distances up to 3.5 m. A groove in the roof of its mouth, along with a curled tongue, forms a tube that enables the fish to impart high velocity to the water in its mouth when it suddenly closes its gill flaps. Suppose the archerfish shoots at a target that is 2.40 m away, measured along a line at an angle of 30.0° above the horizontal. With what velocity must the water stream be launched if it is not to drop more than 5.00 cm verticaly on its path to the target? 22.65 Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may
