An object has an initial velocity of 15 m/s and a constant acceleration of 4 m/s2. How long will it take before its final velocity is equal to three times its initial velocity?

Based on the calculations, it would take 7.5 seconds before the final velocity of this object would be equal to three times its initial velocity.

Given the following data:

  • Initial velocity = 15 m/s.
  • Constant acceleration = 4 m/s².
  • Final velocity = 3 × 15 = 45 m/s.

How to calculate the acceleration of an object?

Mathematically, acceleration can be calculated by using the first equation of motion:

v = u + at

Where:  

  • v is the final velocity.
  • u is the initial velocity.
  • t is the time measured in seconds.

Making t the subject of formula, we have:

t = (v - u)/a

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have:

t = (45 - 15)/4

t = 30/4

t = 7.5 seconds.
