It's equal to the change in velocity (final velocity - initial velocity).

velocity = acceleration x time v = a x t
That's an acceleration.
Equation: Force=Mass X AccelerationIf you are looking for the force, use the equation as is.To find the following, it's assumed that you are given the other two values:Mass= Force / AccelerationAcceleration= Force / MassRemember your labels in your calculations.Mass= force x accelerationForce = mass x accelerationmass = force / accelerationacceleration = force / massSince acceleration = velocity / time we can also substitute velocity / time for acceleration in any of the above.Since velocity = speed / time, we can also substitute speed / time for velocity or speed / (time * time) for acceleration in any of the above.
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.
