No, that won't do it. You need to divide the distance the object went
by the time it took to go that distance.

How can you determine the speed of an object that has a constant motion if you know the distance the object traveled and the time it took?
You divide the distance by the time.You divide the distance by the time.You divide the distance by the time.You divide the distance by the time.
How do I find the distance an object is from the earth with only it's mass and weight in it's current position?
You divide the mass by the weight, to get the gravitational acceleration. Then you use the fact that this gravitational acceleration, or gravitational field, is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. The distance should be calculated from the center of the Earth.
What must you calculate to determine the accerleration of an object?
To determine the acceleration of an object, you must calculate its change in velocity per unit of time.
What is a distance vs time squared graph?
To calculate the gradient of the line on a graph, you need to divide the changein the vertical axis by the change in the horizontal axis.
Suppose you plot the distance traveled by an object at various times and you discover that the graph is not a straight line what does this indicate about the object acceleration?
It means that the object was accelerating or decelerating at least part of the time.

If you know the distance traveled and the time traveled can YOU determine an object and ACCELERATION?
no, you need to know its initial velocity to determine this; if initial velocity is zero then distance is 1/2 acceleration x time squared
How do you get the acceleration of an object?
Acceleration= Distance divided by time

Does distance affect the acceleration of an object moving in a straight line?
The only thing that causes or influences acceleration of an object is force.
What can be calculated for a distance-time graph?
Here are some things that can be determined from a distance-time graph:Total distance travelled, at a particular time.Average velocity at a particular time (take the distance at that point and divide by the elapsed time).If you can determine the slope at a particular point, then you can determine instantaneous velocity.You can tell the direction that the object is travelling: away from the starting point (positive slope) or toward the starting point (negative slope).* * * * * If you can determine the second derivative of the graph, you can calculate the instantaneous acceleration as well.
What factor causes the difference between weight mass?
If you multiply an object's mass by the acceleration of gravity, g, you can determine its weight. If you know an object's weight and divide by g, you can determine its mass. g = 9.8 m/s2 or 32.2 ft/s2 (on Earth)
A 3000 N force gives an object an acceleration of 15ms2. The mass of the object is?
Just use Newton's Second Law. That is, divide the force by the acceleration.

Explain how to determine the acceleration of an object if the the force on the object and the mass of the object is known?
Acceleration in meters per second squared is determined by dividing Force by mass: a = F/m
Suppose you plot the distance traveled by an object at various times and you discover that the graph is not a straight line what does this indicate about the object acceleration?
It means that the object was accelerating or decelerating at least part of the time.
