What formula is used to find distance traveled if you know the change velocity and time?

• v_ave =  (v_i  +  v_f)/2

• a =  (v_f - v_i )/ t

• d = v_i• t  +  ½a • t²

• d = (v_i  +  v_f ) / 2 • t

What formula is used to find initial velocity if you know the final velocity, acceleration and time?

• v_ave =  (v_i  +  v_f)/2

• e = mc²

• v_f  = v_i  + at

• d = (v_i  +  v_f ) / 2 • t

What formula is used to find average velocity? (hard)

• (v_i  +  v_f)/2

• mc²

• v_f  = v_i  + at

• (v_i  +  v_f ) / 2 • t

What formula is used to find distance traveled if you only know the initial velocity, acceleration and time?

• v_ave =  (v_i  +  v_f)/2

• d = v_i• t  +  ½a • t²

• v_f  = v_i  + at

• d = (v_i  +  v_f ) / 2 • t
