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

If you know the distance traveled and the time traveled can YOU determine an object and DIRECTION?
No, you cannot.
What is the distance traveled by an object divided by the time in which the distance was traveled without identifying the direction traveled?
Speed describes the distance traveled by an object divided by the time in which the distance was traveled, if the direction is not specified.
Formula for distance traveled?
There is not enough information to answer the question. The answer depends onis the object travelling at constant velocity?is the acceleration constant?If it is an object travelling with constant acceleration, which three of the following four variables are knows: initaial velocity, final velocity, acceleration and time.
When you use a graph to solve a problem about how far a car traveled?
When you have information about the motion of the cars in terms of its velocity of acceleration over a period of time but not its distance from a fixed object.
What information would be necessary to determine the speed of an object?
The distance it travels and how long it took to travel that far. To calculate speed you do (total distance traveled)/(total time taken)
If you know the distance traveled and the time traveled can YOU determine an object and DIRECTION?
No, you cannot.
When distance traveled by an object is directly proportional to time is said to travell with?
uniform acceleration
If you know the distance of an object has traveled in a certain amount of time you can determine the?
speed
To determine the speed of an object divide distance by acceleration?
No, that won't do it. You need to divide the distance the object went by the time it took to go that distance.
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.
What is the distance traveled by an object divided by the time in which the distance was traveled without identifying the direction traveled?
Speed describes the distance traveled by an object divided by the time in which the distance was traveled, if the direction is not specified.
What two things must you know to determine average speed?
To determine average speed, you need to know what distance the object traveled in meters over how long it took the object to travel that distance in seconds.
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
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)
What can you determine if you know the distance an object has traveled in a certain amount of time?
Velocity Velocity= distance/time V=d/t
How can you use an object's velocity and the time it takes to travel a certain distance to determine its acceleration?
You would need to sample the velocity at at least two different points of time in order to determine how to velocity is changing. This is because velocity is the first order integral of acceleration, making acceleration the first order differential of velocity. Distance does not really enter into the equation as that is a second order factor, except that you can use distance traveled from one time to the next to estimate velocity
If a person knows the distance an object has traveled in a certain amount of time they can determine the?
If you divide he distance by the time, and take into account the direction traveled, you will get the AVERAGE velocity during the time considered.
