Motion equations
Calculate speed, acceleration and distance travelled.
Speed
speed = distance ÷ time
Speed is measured in metres per second (m/s), distance in metres (m), and time in seconds (s).
Acceleration
acceleration = change in velocity ÷ time
Acceleration is measured in metres per second squared (m/s²). Change in velocity is measured in m/s.
