A complicated problem!
Ok, I need some help on this problem, its related to Robotics:
You have a car that moves some certain number of feet which we know. How many seconds does it take that car to travel the distance which again we know? Thank you for your help. Sravan Suryadevara |
Re: A complicated problem!
The time depends on the car's velocity, and is an unsolvable problem without that piece of information.

Re: A complicated problem!
well distance = 1/2 acceleration* t^2 ...
shouldn't be too hard to figure out ... given your acceleration... |

...moved this to math and science since it doesn't appear to be about programming (or robotics, for that matter) at all.
I'm accepting nominations for a thread title that makes sense, too. ;) |
Re: A complicated problem!
this is going to based on equations of motion. But, your missing information.
Distance = Initial position + initial velocity x time + 1/2 x acceleration x time^2 Most likely it will be a constant velocity with acceleration and initial position zero, or an acceleration with initial velocity and position zero. "Equations of motion problem" <---- possible thread title? |
Re: A complicated problem!
To restate the problem, how long will it take for a car to travel a mile?
Without more information, there can be no answer. |
