How do you calculate time when given distance and initial velocity?

That is not possible. You would have to know one more thing, such as the
rate of acceleration or the distance.
Take a step back and think for a moment about what you're asking.
I'll make up an example that illustrates the situation you've described:
I left my house driving north at 20 miles per hour, and arrived at my office
driving east at 40 miles per hour. How long did the trip from my home to
my office take me ?
Can you see now why it's not possible ?

To calculate time when given distance and initial velocity, you can use the formula: time = distance / initial velocity. Simply divide the distance by the initial velocity to find the time it takes to travel that distance at the given speed.

ā 12y agoThat's truly a tough one. Particularly if you've been skipping the homework, or not
paying attention in class.
Final velocity = (Initial velocity) + (acceleration) x (time).Surely, you can massage this around to solve it for 'time'.Wiki User
ā 11y agoThe fact that you are given an initial velocity and not just velocity suggests that the motion is accelerated. In that case there is not sufficient information to calculate the time.

To find the acceleration of an object moving in a straight line you must calculate the charge in distance during unit of time?
To find the acceleration of an object moving in a straight line, you must calculate the change in velocity during a unit of time. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity over time, not distance. It is given by the formula acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time.
How do you find the distance given only the initial velocity traveled time and final velocity?
You can use the equation: distance = (initial velocity + final velocity) / 2 * time. This formula assumes constant acceleration.
How do you calculate distance when given velocity and weight?
To calculate distance with velocity and weight, you can use the equation for work: Work = Force x Distance. The force can be calculated by multiplying the weight with gravity. Velocity can then be used to determine the time it takes for the object to travel that distance using the equation Distance = Velocity x Time.
How do you find final speed if acceleration time and beginning velocity is given?
You can find the final speed by using the formula: final speed = initial velocity + (acceleration * time). Plug in the given values for initial velocity, acceleration, and time into the formula to calculate the final speed.
How do you find initial velocity given only 45 degrees and a distance of 10 meters?
To find the initial velocity given an angle of 45 degrees and a distance of 10 meters, you can use the projectile motion equation for horizontal distance: x = Vā * cos(Īø) * t, where x is the horizontal distance, Vā is the initial velocity, Īø is the angle, and t is the time of flight. Since you know the angle and distance, you can solve for the initial velocity given those values.
How do you calculate acceleration when given velocity and distance?
v2 - u2 = 2as so that a = (v2 - u2)/2s where u = initial velocity v = final velocity s = distance a = acceleration
How do you calculate initial speed without time given?
Without time given, it is not possible to calculate the initial speed. The initial speed can be determined only if you have the time taken to reach a certain point from rest, along with the distance traveled or acceleration information. The formula to calculate initial speed is v = u + at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is acceleration, and t is time.
How to calculate if time and initial velocity are given?
This is difficult. We are not told what it is we are to calculate. We are not told how the velocity is changing (which it does, implied by the word "initial"). Suggest re-writing the question.
How do you find the initial velocity given only distance?
You cannot.
How do you calculate tota distance traveled when given velocity time and acceleration?
Assuming constant acceleration: distance = v(0) t + (1/2) a t squared Where v(0) is the initial velocity.
To find the acceleration of an object moving in a straight line you must calculate the charge in distance during unit of time?
To find the acceleration of an object moving in a straight line, you must calculate the change in velocity during a unit of time. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity over time, not distance. It is given by the formula acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time.
How do you find time when initial and ending velocity is given?
There is not enough information to calculate the answer.
Is it possible to calculate distance when given velocity and weight?
yes...
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 do you get the displacement if the if the final velocity is not given?
You can calculate displacement using the equation: displacement = initial velocity x time + 0.5 x acceleration x time^2. Given the initial velocity, time, and acceleration, you can find the displacement even if the final velocity is not given.
How do you find the final velocity given only distancetimeand initial velocity?
v = 2s/t - u where u=initial velocity, v=final velocity, s = distance and t = time
Quadratic equation in real life?
One example... X = 1/2 A t2 + V0 t + X0 Where X is distance, A is acceleration, t is time, V0 is initial velocity, and X0 is initial distance. This allows you to calculate where you would be given a starting position, velocity, and acceleration, after a specified time, such as in an automobile.
