Acceleration= Distance/time (distance divided by time)
That's the dumbest answer I've ever heard..
Acceleration = Final Velocity - Initial Velocity/Time
Velocity = Displacement/Time
So you can't calculate acceleration from distance and time, you can only do velocity.

How do you calculate the acceleration of gravity?
To calculate the acceleration of gravity, time (t) an object falling a certain distance (d) and the acceleration of gravity= d/t
Is it true that to calculate acceleraltion you need to know both the final and the initial velocity of an object?
No. That's only one of several possibilities. -- with initial velocity, distance, and time, you can calculate acceleration -- with final velocity, distance, and time, you can calculate acceleration -- with force and mass, you can calculate acceleration -- with initial and final momentum, you can calculate acceleration -- with initial and final kinetic energy, you can calculate acceleration -- with mass, velocity at either end, and kinetic energy at the other end, you can calculate acceleration And I'm sure there are several more that I've missed.
To find the acceleration of an object moving in a straight line you must calculate the charge in distance during unit of time?
You calculate the charge in velocity, not in distance.
How do you calculate measurement uncertainty for acceleration given uncertainty in time?
If the distance is known to perfection, an acceleration is constant, then the absolute error in the calculation of acceleration is 2/t3, where t is the measured time.
What part of the graph represents uniform positive and negative acceleration Calculate this acceleration.?
The answer depends on whether the graph is that of speed v time or distance v time.
How do you calculate acceleration from velocity?
There are 3 formula 1. Final velocity = starting velocity + (acceleration)(time) 2. Final velocity^2 = starting velocity^2 + 2(acceleration)(distance) 3. Distance = (starting velocity)(time) + 1/2(acceleration)(time^2) Use whichever you can use.
How do you calculate the height an object reaches using only time and acceleration g?
Assuming (a) an initial velocity of zero, and (b) constant acceleration, the formula becomes: distance = 0.5 at2 (distance = 1/2 times acceleration times time squared).
What is the most commonly used formula to calculate acceleration?
A=Vf-Vi/t Acceleration is the final velocity minus the initial velocity divided by the time it too to reach it
What type of model would be most effective to demonstrate the relationship between distance and time?
An acceleration model will be the best to display a relationship between distance and time. This is because it is good to calculate speed and acceleration in meters per second.
How do you calculate tota distance traveled when given velocity time and acceleration?
Assuming constant acceleration: distance = v(0) t + (1/2) a t squared Where v(0) is the initial velocity.
How do you find time when given distance and acceleration?
Distance = (1/2 of acceleration) x (time squared)You can change this around to solve it for acceleration or time.(Time squared) = (distance)/(half of acceleration)Time = the square root of [ (2 x distance)/(acceleration) ]Be careful . . .This is only true if the distance and the speed are both zero when the time begins.
What is the dimensional formula of acceleration due to gravity?
An acceleration is a velocity divided by a time, so you have: acceleration = velocity / time acceleration = (distance / time) / time acceleration = distance / time2 The gravitational field can also be expressed as force / mass; this is equivalent to distance / time2.
