Consider the velocity function for an object moving along a line shown in the figure. a. Describe the motion of the object over the interval [0,8]. b. Use geometry to find the displacement of the object between t= 0 and t = 2. c. Use geometry to find the displacement of the object between t = 2 and t = 6. d. Assuming that the velocity remains 20 m/s for t≥ 6, what is the displacement function between t=0 and any time t≥ 6? a. Describe the motion of the object over the interval [0,8]. The object is on the interval [0,1], speeding up moving at a constant rate slowing down on [1,4], Velocity (m/s) 30- 20+ 10- on [4,6], and 6 8 Time (s) t Q Q ✔
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.
