To calculate velocity when you are given position, time, and acceleration, you can use the following formula:

vf=vi+a⋅tv_f = v_i + a cdot t

Where:

  • vfv_f is the final velocity
  • viv_i is the initial velocity
  • aa is the acceleration
  • tt is the time

However, if you are given the initial position (sis_i), final position (sfs_f), time (tt), and acceleration (aa), you can use a different formula:

vf2=vi2+2⋅a⋅Δsv_f^2 = v_i^2 + 2 cdot a cdot Delta s
