Input Parameters

Calculation Results

Calculation Formula

a = (vf - vi) / t

Where:
a = Acceleration (m/s²)
vf = Final Velocity (m/s)
vi = Initial Velocity (m/s)
t = Time Period (s)

Expected Acceleration Calculator Usage Guide

Learn how to use the Expected Acceleration Calculator and its working principles

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the initial velocity in meters per second (m/s).
  2. Enter the final velocity in meters per second (m/s).
  3. Enter the time period in seconds (s).
  4. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the expected acceleration.
  5. The result will be displayed in meters per second squared (m/s²).

Working Principle

The Expected Acceleration Calculator uses the basic physics formula:

a = (vf - vi) / t

Where:

  • a = Acceleration (m/s²)
  • vf = Final Velocity (m/s)
  • vi = Initial Velocity (m/s)
  • t = Time Period (s)

This formula calculates the rate of change of velocity over time, giving the acceleration of an object.

Example

If a car increases its velocity from 10 m/s to 30 m/s in 5 seconds, the expected acceleration would be:

a = (30 m/s - 10 m/s) / 5 s = 4 m/s²
