`t = ( "Vf" - "Vi" )/ "a" `

Enter a value for all fields

The Time to Reach Final Velocity calculator compute the time traveling under a constant acceleration to go from and initial to final velocity.

INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:

• (V_f) Final Velocity
• (V_i) Initial velocity 

Time to Reach Final Velocity (t): The calculator returns the time in seconds.  However, this can be automatically converted to compatible units via the pull-down menu.

The math / science

The formula for the time to reach final velocity of an object is:

               t = (vf - vi)/a
where,

• t =  time to reach final velocity
• vf = final velocity  of the object
• vi = initial velocity of the object
• a  = constant acceleration of the object
