The answer depends on the context:

You can find the acceleration if you know any three of : initial velocity, final velocity, time, distance travelled.

You can find it if you know the mass and force.

You know the two masses and the distance between them (gravitational acceleration).

What would you not use to find the acceleration of an object?

You would not use the object's mass to find its acceleration. Acceleration is determined by the force acting on an object, as given by Newton's second law of motion (F = ma), not by the object's mass alone.


How do you find acceleration with velocity given?

Use the formula Acceleration = (final velosity - initial velocity)/ time.


What formula would you use to find the acceleration of a 10 kg boulder being pushed by a force of 65 N what would the acceleration be?

You would use the formula F = ma, where F is the force applied (65 N), m is the mass of the boulder (10 kg), and a is the acceleration. Rearranging the formula to solve for acceleration, you get a = F/m. Plugging in the values, the acceleration of the boulder would be 6.5 m/s^2.


What formula would you use to find the acceleration of a 10 kg boulder being pushed by a force of 65 N?

You can use Newton's second law of motion, which states that acceleration is equal to the net force acting on an object divided by its mass. So, the acceleration of the boulder would be calculated as 65 N / 10 kg = 6.5 m/s^2.


How do you find acceleration of mass?

To find the acceleration of a mass, you can use the equation a = F/m, where a is the acceleration, F is the force acting on the mass, and m is the mass. Alternatively, if the mass is subject to gravity only, you can use the equation a = g, where g is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.8 m/s^2).


How do you find N?

If by N you mean Newtons, then the formula to use would be Force=mass x acceleration. Newtons is the unit of measurement for force


How do you find acceleration of an object in motion when the height and angle are given?

To find the acceleration of an object in motion when the height and angle are given, you can use trigonometry to resolve the height and angle into their horizontal and vertical components. Once you have these components, you can use the equations of motion to calculate the acceleration in each direction separately. Then, you can combine these accelerations using vector addition to find the total acceleration of the object.


How would you find the acceleration of a car going down a ramp.?

To find the acceleration of a car going down a ramp, you can use the equation: acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time. Measure the initial and final velocities of the car using a speedometer, and measure the time it takes for the car to travel down the ramp. Plug in the values into the formula to calculate the acceleration.


What is the formula to find the mass when they give you the acceleration and mass?

You ignore the acceleration, and just give them the mass. Now, if they give you the acceleration and the applied force, you could use m = F/a.


How do you find acceleration given mass and distance?

Not enough information. One equation you can often use is Newton's Second Law: force = mass x acceleration Which, when solved for acceleration, gives you: acceleration = force / mass


Why is defining only force not enough?

If you are talking about problems involving Newton's second law of motion, F = ma, you would need to define two of the three variables of force, mass, and acceleration in order to find the third variable. If you have force and mass, you can find acceleration. If you have force and acceleration, you can find mass. If you have mass and acceleration you can find force.


What equation would you use to find the acceleration of an object of known mass if you also know the initial velocity final velocity and time over which the acceleration occured?

Use the equation a=(v-u)/t, whereby v stands for final velocity, u for initial velocity and t for time.
