If an object's velocity and acceleration are constant, you can determine the distance it travels by using equations of motion. Let's assume the initial position of the object is x0x_0x0 and its initial velocity is v0v_0v0. We'll also denote the constant velocity as vvv and the constant acceleration as aaa.
To calculate the distance traveled, you need to consider two cases:
Constant velocity (a=0a = 0a=0): When the acceleration is zero, the object is moving with a constant velocity. In this case, the distance traveled can be determined using the formula: d=v⋅td = v cdot td=v⋅t Where ddd is the distance traveled, vvv is the constant velocity, and ttt is the time.
Constant acceleration (a≠0a
eq 0a=0): When the acceleration is constant, you can use the following equation to calculate the distance traveled: d=x−x0=v0⋅t+12⋅a⋅t2d = x - x_0 = v_0 cdot t + frac{1}{2} cdot a cdot t^2d=x−x0=v0⋅t+21⋅<span class="mspace" style="marg
