2. A golfer hits a golf ball from the tee; the ball leaves the club with an initial speed of 25 m/s at an angle of 35° above the horizontal. The ball follows projectile motion and lands on the green which is 2 m higher than the tee. A. Sketch a motion diagram showing the starting and ending points of the motion. Note everything you can about the variables involved. If you don't know the value of a variable, represent it with a symbol for now. B. How much time is the golf ball in the air? C. What is the maximum height (relative to the tee) that the golf ball attains? D. What is the range of the golf ball?
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.
