How to calculate constant acceleration displacement
This calculator finds displacement under constant acceleration, given initial velocity, acceleration, and time.
How the calculation works
Displacement = (Initial velocity × Time) + (0.5 × Acceleration × Time²).
Example
Starting at 5 m/s, accelerating at 2 m/s² for 4 seconds: (5×4)+(0.5×2×16) = 20+16 = 36 meters.
Frequently asked questions

Pro Tips for Constant Acceleration Displacement
- This is one of the standard kinematic equations — useful whenever acceleration is constant (not changing) over the time interval.
- If initial velocity is zero, the formula simplifies to just 0.5 × acceleration × time².
Common Constant Acceleration Displacement Mistakes to Avoid
- Applying this formula to a situation with non-constant (changing) acceleration, where it doesn't hold.
