How to Use This Calculator
- Select what you want to solve: final velocity, distance, or time.
- Enter the known values: initial velocity (m/s), acceleration (m/s2), and/or time (s).
- Review the result and the kinematic equation used.
- Use for projectile motion, vehicle performance calculations, and free-fall problems.
- Negative acceleration = deceleration -- enter as a negative value for braking calculations.
How the result changes with Acceleration
