In the figure below, a radar station detects an airplane approaching directly from the east. At first observation, the range to the plane is d₂ = 387 m at 40° above the horizon. The airplane is tracked for another 123° in the vertical east-west plane, the range at final contact being d₂ = 810 m. Find the displacement f the airplane during the period f observation. meters magnitude direction (counter-clockwise from east) da AB Airplane 18, 4₂ Radar dish EESTMARTRES
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.
