How do you you find displacement from velocity?

Answer 1

Velocity is defined as

v = dx/dt

where:

• v is velocity;
• dx is displacement;
• and dt is elapsed time.

Assuming velocity is constant, then displacement is calculated as:

dx = v/dt.

Answer 2

To find displacement from velocity, you need to integrate the velocity function over the desired time interval. If the velocity function is changing, you can use calculus to find the area under the velocity-time graph to determine the displacement. Alternatively, you can calculate displacement by multiplying average velocity by time elapsed.
