Since the car accelerates uniformly, its average speed during the interval is
1/2 (initial speed + final speed) = 1/2 (4.15 + 17.11) = 10.63 m/s.
The distance covered is (average speed) x (time) = (10.63) x (4.8) = 51.024 meters.
If the motion during the 4.8 seconds was all in the same direction along a straight line,
then that same 51.024 meters is also the displacement during that time.
If, instead, it happened to take 4.8 seconds to go around a circle with a circumference
of 51.024 m, then the displacement over the 4.8 seconds is zero, since the starting line
is also the finish line.
s = u + at s = displacement u = initial velocity a = acceleration t = time rearrange to give u = s - at and sub in values
the formula that ties displacement (you can think of it as distance in a given direction), velocity, time and acceleration (a) is : s = s0+vt + 1/2at^2 s0 = initial displacement (you can equate to 0, if you start at 0) vt = starting velocity times time (you can equate to 0 if initial velocity is 0) s= final displacement so s=1/2at^2 = (1/2 x a x t x t), so here you end up with a relationship between displacement, acceleration and time. (note: ^2 stands for "to the 2nd power")
If the velocity is constant, thenDisplacement = (initial velocity) multiplied by (time)
The mass of the pendulum, the length of string, and the initial displacement from the rest position.
True
The difference between the final and the initial position of an object is called displacement. Unit of displacement is metre . Displacement <= Distance always.
Displacement
Final position - Initial position
Kinematics. Final velocity squared = initial velocity squared + 2(gravitational acceleration)(displacement)
velocity is displacement / time. Displacement is shortest distance between initial and final point
The magnitude of displacement is the shortest distance between the initial and final position. In case of a particle completing one full round around a circle the displacement is ZERO. Because the initial and final positions are one and the same
Initial displacement has no effect on the period of oscillation. The period T = 2(pi)sqrt(mass/spring constant)
displacement is 0 because the initial position is same.
s = u + at s = displacement u = initial velocity a = acceleration t = time rearrange to give u = s - at and sub in values
the formula that ties displacement (you can think of it as distance in a given direction), velocity, time and acceleration (a) is : s = s0+vt + 1/2at^2 s0 = initial displacement (you can equate to 0, if you start at 0) vt = starting velocity times time (you can equate to 0 if initial velocity is 0) s= final displacement so s=1/2at^2 = (1/2 x a x t x t), so here you end up with a relationship between displacement, acceleration and time. (note: ^2 stands for "to the 2nd power")
when the body moves circularly from a point 'A' to a then the displacement will be zero(displacement is the shortest diatance from the initial point to final point) and the distance will not be zero.
If the velocity is constant, thenDisplacement = (initial velocity) multiplied by (time)
