If you know the distance then you use the equation
d = x0 + v0t = 1/2 at2
if the object starts from rest then v0 = 0
If the object starts at zero distance the x0 = 0
d = 1/2 at2
Squareroot(2d/a) = t

How do you calculate the time it takes an accelerating object to travel a certain distance?
d=displacement v=initial velocity t=time a=acceleration Our basic formula for displacement: d=vt+.5at2 becomes: t = (√(v2+2ad)-v)/a
What is the distance traveled by an object divided byt he time it takes to travel distance?
That number is what we call the object's "speed".
How can you calculate the time it takes to travel if you know distance and rate?
Time equals distance divided by rate.
How do you calculate the time it takes to drive 30 miles at 50 mph?
Use a stopwatch.
When does the mass and or size of an object affect the time of its free fall?
if an object is lightr it will fall slower because gravity wont take it down as fast if it is heavier it will make the gravity pull it down faster
What Italian scientist argued that mass of an object does not affect the time the object takes to fall to the ground?
Galileo
What Italian scientist argued that the mass of an object does not affect the time the object takes to fall to the ground?
Galileo galilei
What would the hypothesis be for Does the mass of an object affect the falling time you have not tested it?
Before you test it, you could state the hypothesis in two different ways You could say: "The mass of a falling object has no effect on the time it takes to fall some distance." Or you could say: "The time a falling object takes to fall some distance depends on its mass." You could use the same tests to investigate EITHER hypothesis. --------------------------- The mass of a falling object has no effect on the time it takes to fall some distance assuming zero air resistance.
Is an increase in kinetic energy directly proportional to the time it takes for an object to fall slash distance it falls?
The kinetic energy of a falling object is directly proportional to the distance it falls.But the distance is not directly proportional to the time in fall, so the KE is not directly proportionalto the time either.
Does different speed of two objects effect the time it takes to reach the ground?
If thrown horizontal from same height the faster object will travel farther horizontally, but time to fall is the same. If thrown straight up, the faster object will take longer to fall
How is ball diameter related to the time it takes the ball to fall?
how is the diameter related to the time it takes the ball to fall
How do you calculate Round trip time?
Add the time it takes to get there to the time it takes to come back.
Calculate the following time it takes to pump 40 gallons of gasline?
calculate the following time it takes to pump 40 gallons of gasoline
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.
How does concentration of a fluid affect the motion of falling objects?
The higher the concentration of a fluid, the longer the time it takes for an object to fall and therefore the smaller the terminal velocity.
What is the amount of time an object takes to move around another object?
It depends on what object it is. You have to figure out it mass and such.
How are you going to calculate for the speed of a given object?
Distance over time.
