Acceleration by Distance

This function calculates acceleration as a function of distance. The acceleration or change in speed over a certain distance is calculated.

To perform the calculation, use the radio button to select which value should be calculated. Then enter the required values and click the 'Calculate' button.

Formulas for Acceleration

Acceleration

\(\displaystyle a=\frac{V_E^{\;2} - V_S^{\;2}}{2·s}\)

Start velocity

\(\displaystyle V_S=\sqrt{V_E^{\;2}-(2·s·a)}\)

End velocity

\(\displaystyle V_E= \sqrt{(2· s ·a)+V_S^{\;2}}\)

Distance

\(\displaystyle s=\frac{V_E^{\;2} - V_S^{\;2}}{2·a}\)
