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 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.
What is the acceleration in science if you know average speed and time?
If you know average speed then you cannot determine the acceleration: the very nature of being a average hides all the increases and decreases in speed which are the accelerations (technically, acceleration is change of speed in a direction). All average speed tells you is the constant speed at which you require to travel to cover the given distance in the given time; as the speed is constant, the acceleration is zero.
How do you find acceleration falling object with only speed and distance?
a = (v2 - u2)/2s where a is the acceleration between the initial point in time and the final point in time, u is the initial velocity v is the final velocity s is the distance travelled
How do you find time when given distance and acceleration?
Distance = (1/2 of acceleration) x (time squared)You can change this around to solve it for acceleration or time.(Time squared) = (distance)/(half of acceleration)Time = the square root of [ (2 x distance)/(acceleration) ]Be careful . . .This is only true if the distance and the speed are both zero when the time begins.
