100 POINTS.
What equation(s) should be used to find distance or time of an object that is moving with a constant speed?

Please explain the answer in detail why that formula works for this situation.

Answer 1

Answer:

x = vt

Explanation:

At constant speed, distance = speed × time.

x = vt

To solve for time:

t = x / v

This equation works because at constant speed, there is no acceleration.

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = v₀ t + ½ (0) t²

Δx = v₀ t
