    Finding time given constant acceleration, initial velocity, & distance

    Thanks for your help guys. Now that I know what to do with those velocity equations I think I should be set. Cheers.

    Finding time given constant acceleration, initial velocity, & distance

    Sorry. The general section said that any homework/ course type questions should be posted here. Mine seemed to fit into that category. I finished high school a few years ago now but since I've never had reason to use anything above basic math I've forgotten most of what I learned regarding...

    Finding time given constant acceleration, initial velocity, & distance

    9.8t2 + 176400t - 8000000000000 (?) If it gets relativistic then I guess I have to consider it. This isn't for homework or anything like that. This is just for something I'm writing. I just wanted a quick solution to what I thought was a simple problem but I can see that it's escalating into a...

    Finding time given constant acceleration, initial velocity, & distance

    Would the standard form be: 9.8t2 + 176400t + 8000000000000

    Finding time given constant acceleration, initial velocity, & distance

    Homework Statement I want to cover a distance of 8,ooo,ooo,ooo,ooo m and I want to know the time it will take if I have an initial velocity of 176400 m/ sec with an acceleration of 19.6 m/sec2. I think I have the right equation here I'm just not sure how to solve for t. Could someone walk me...
