A stone is dropped from a balloon 3 seconds after it started rising at a constant velocity of 20 m/s at elevation 350m from the ground. Two seconds later, another stone is thrown vertically upward from the ground with a velocity of 90 m/s. Determine: a) Time elapsed when the stones will pass each other. (indicate reference of time) b) Location of the stones when they meet. c) Time elapsed for the second stone until it hits the ground. d) The highest point for the stone from the ground will reach.
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.
