car weighing 9 kN travels at 80 km/hr. At the foot of an incline of 10%, the engine stops. Determine: a – acceleration.0 b – time for the car before it stops.0 c – distance traveled by the car before it stops.0
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.
A car weighing 9 kN travels at 80 km/hr. At the foot of an incline of 10%, the engine stops. Determine:
a – acceleration.0
b – time for the car before it stops.0
c – distance traveled by the car before it stops.0
