How do you find the initial velocity given only distance?

You cannot.


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

If you are only given total distance and total time you cannot. If you are given distance as a function of time, then the first derivative of distance with respect to time, ds/dt, gives the velocity. Evaluate this function at t = 0 for initial velocity. The second derivative, d2s/dt2 gives the acceleration as a function of time.


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

You can only know the distance for sure if acceleration or deceleration is constant. Add the start and end velocities and divide by two and then multiply by the time to get your distance.


How do you find velocity given only the time?

You cannot. You must have distance (or displacement). If you know it is from a standing start then accelaration will do.


How do you find the final velocity given only distancetimeand initial velocity?

v = 2s/t - u where u=initial velocity, v=final velocity, s = distance and t = 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.


How do you find acceleration when given only mass and velocity?

You can't. Acceleration is change in velocity. If given a constant velocity, the acceleration is zero.


How to find potential energy when only mass and velocity time is given?

To get the potential energy when only the mass and velocity time has been given, simply multiply mass and the velocity time given.


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

Average speed = 1/2 (initial speed + final speed) Time = (distance)/(average speed)


How do you find the distance if only the final velocity and the acceleration is given?

If you take initial velocity(Vi) to be zero and the final velocity (Vo) to be a known. Puting the knowns into a triganonomical equation and solving for the value of D would give an answer


How do you find height if only velocity is given?

In that case, you don't have enough information.


How do you find distance if only given time interval?
