The answer will depend on the conditions under which the body is moving and how sophisticated your calculations need to be.

On (or near) the surface of the earth, if the body had velocity v0 ms-1 at time t0 seconds then in the simple model, its velocity at time t seconds will be v = v0 - 9.81*t ms-1 (approx). The vertical distance will be v0t - 9.81t2 metres. In a more sophisticated model you would include air resistance. Also if v0 is large, it is possible that the height attained is large enough to affect deceleration due to gravity.

How do you find time when you know the distance and the velocity?

distance/velocity = time


How do you find distance when you know the time and velocity?

Simple, velocity = distance by time ,which probably means distance = velocity X times.


What is the formula to find time in seconds from velocity and distance?

Distance divided by velocity = time


In projectile motion What Angle would horizontal and vertical distance be equal?

In projectile motion, the horizontal distance will be at its maximum when the angle is 45 degrees. At this angle, the vertical and horizontal components of the initial velocity are equal, resulting in maximum range.


How do you find a final velocity without distance but given time?

Without distance, you have to know time, initial velocity, and acceleration, in order to find final velocity.


How does the angle of release affect the motion of a projectile both vertical and horizontal?

Smaller angles will result in a larger horizontal velocity and smaller vertical velocity. The times of flight will also be shorter since it's closer to the ground. Larger angles have a larger vertical velocity and smaller horizontal velocity. Time of flight will be much longer since it is higher above the ground. As for distance, 45 degrees will result in the greatest distance and for every distance before the furthest one there is an angle above 45 degrees and an angle below 45 degrees that will result in that distance.


Does horizontal velocity effect the rate of vertical velocity?

No, horizontal velocity does not affect the rate of vertical velocity. Each component of velocity (horizontal and vertical) is independent of the other. They act separately to determine the motion of an object.


If you know the velocity and the distance but not the time which way do you divide velocity divided by distance or distance divided by velocity?

To find the time when you know the distance and velocity but not the time, you should divide distance by velocity. This is because time equals distance divided by velocity (time = distance/velocity).


How do you find the distance from a velocity time graph?

this time is basically the instant when an object has a particular velocity(instantaneous velocity). so on the graph draw a line from the particular value of the velocity and then draw a vertical line on time axis to find the time for that velocity.


How can you find velocity?

Velocity is distance divided by time. (v=d/t)


How do you find braking distance when given velocity and reaction distance?

What is vertical velocity?

Vertical velocity is the rate of change of an object's position in the vertical direction per unit of time. It is the speed at which an object moves up or down relative to a reference point. Positive vertical velocity indicates upward movement, while negative vertical velocity indicates downward movement.
