Hi CWatters, Thanks for your help this is a much better way of doing it :-)

Hello everybody, Sorry I meant... velocity final = (time x accel) + velocity initial... (typing error!). CWatters I also came out with 0.7m/s. I graphed the max velocity for both acceleration and deceleration against different distances in increments of 100mm for 1m. I was able to read from...

Hello everybody, Thanks for your help. I found a solution. I used the following formulas -> (time = √2Xdistance / accel) and the formula -> (velocity final = time x accel x velocity initial) I then graphed the velocity for both acceleration and deceleration vs the distance traveled for a...

I will explain it using an example: So an object starts from rest. It accelerates at 2000mm/s2 then decelerates at 3000mm/s2 to rest. The distance from start to finish let's say 200mm. But is it possible to calculate the max velocity reached while traveling between the points?

Hello jbriggs444 and CWatters, Thank you for your help. I may not have explained my problem well.

Hello everybody, I am trying to calculate the maximum velocity(x) an object reaches between two point. The object accelerates from point A to a certain velocity(x) and then decelerates to point B. The acceleration and deceleration are known but are different. The distance from point A to point...
