\[v = \frac{d}{t}\]
Variables
vvelocity (m/s)
ddistance traveled (m)
ttime elapsed (s)
Description
What is this formula?
This formula calculates the constant velocity of an object moving in a straight line during uniform linear motion.
When to use it
Use this equation when an object travels at constant speed with no acceleration.
Example
If a vehicle travels 150 m in 10 s:
v = 150 / 10 = 15 m/s
Applications
Basic physics, vehicle motion analysis, transportation studies, industrial conveyor systems, and engineering calculations.
