The Vertical Distance equation, Δy=12ayΔt2, calculates the vertical distance traveled (Δy) by an object from the origin after a period of time (t),  the objects initial velocity  and displacement are zero and a constant acceleration (a).

Note: this is a form of the following equation with no initial distance (x0= 0).  dx=x0+v0t+0.5at2

Usage

Acceleration (a) is typically - m/s2 to represent the negative (downward) force of gravity.
