What is mathematical formula for calculating acceleration?

Acceleration=Speed1-speed2/Distance traveled


If an object is accelerating what equation relates the distance traveled by that object to the initial velocity final velocity and time?

Final velocity = Initial velocity +(acceleration * 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


Why does a curve on a distance-time indicate acceleration?

an increasing distance is traveled during each unit of time


How does distance vary with the square of time?

For a free-falling object, you can calculate the total distance traveled, given the amount of time. The distance of the fall is proportional to the square of the time elapsed. In general, distance can be found by the relationship between acceleration and time squared. If we let a be acceleration, which can be gravity if you want, and t be time, then we have: The distance traveled = 1/2 * a * t2 The distance traveled = 1/2 * g* t2


When distance traveled by an object is directly proportional to time is said to travell with?

uniform acceleration


What is the formula for speed and acceleration?

formula for speed is distance traveled over time taken to cover distance acceleration is given by change in velocity per unit time


How do you find the initial velocity given only the distance and the time traveled?

You can't. You need either the final velocity or the acceleration of the object as well, and then you can substitute the known values into a kinematics equation to get the initial velocity.


What is the formula for distance traveled in acceleration?

If starting from rest, Distance = 1/2 (acceleration) x (time)2 . Otherwise, Distance = 1/2 (initial speed + final speed) x (time)


What is the formula for distance traveled with constant acceleration?

If the car begins with zero speed, thenDistance = 1/2 (acceleration) x (time)2


When the body starts from rest and attain velocity v in time t with a constant acceleration the distance traveled by the body is?

d = 1/2 a t2 where d is distance traveled a is the constant acceleration t is the time You can calculate the value of "a" by dividing "v" by "t".


If a body dropped from rest has a constant acceleration in free fall is the distance traveled by the body the same for each time interval?

No. Acceleration is the rate at which the speed is INCREASING. Since the speed is increasing,the distance traveled by the body in each time interval is also increasing.
