t=(v-iv) / a
t = time
v = velocity
iv = initial velocity
a = accelerationwe only have v and iv... we don't know the rate of acceleration and therefore can't work out the time.
- we've decided to assume acceleration is constantribit
- you aren't using all the dataribit
- that's an erroneous assumption.Amicus
- we just want to get rid of this and move on. (It cant be solved at all if we don't assume constant acceleration)ribit
- that's my pointAmicus
- no it wasnt.ribit
- If acceleration is constant it can be solved.ribit
- because we know the distanceribit
