The distance travelled by an object in a given time is given by:

Distance = Speed * Time



Alternatively for an object that is accelerating:

Distance = (Speed of object before acceleration is applied * Time) + (0.5 * Acceleration * Time squared)

If the object is accelerating from speed zero, the first set of brackets is irrelevant.

Also, if the object is falling to the ground, acceleration = 9.81
