What are the SUVAT equations?

SUVAT equations describe motion under constant acceleration: v = u + at, s = ut + ½at², v² = u² + 2as, s = ½(u+v)t, s = vt - ½at². They link displacement (s), initial velocity (u), final velocity (v), acceleration (a), and time (t).

How do you use this SUVAT calculator?

Select which variable you want to find (e.g., displacement). Enter the other four known values. Click compute. For bulk, upload a CSV with rows of known values; the tool solves each row.

Can I calculate SUVAT in bulk?

Yes. Prepare a CSV/txt file with columns for the known variables (s, u, v, a, t). Include a 'target' column indicating which variable to solve. The tool processes hundreds of rows instantly client-side.

What are typical acceleration values?

Gravity on Earth: 9.81 m/s². Car acceleration: 2–5 m/s². Railgun projectile: up to 100,000 m/s². Free fall: 9.81 m/s² downward.

What is SUVAT? Formulas & Examples

SUVAT stands for S (displacement), U (initial velocity), V (final velocity), A (acceleration), T (time). These five variables are linked by four kinematic equations under constant acceleration: v = u + at, s = ut + ½at², v² = u² + 2as, and s = ½(u+v)t. This calculator instantly solves any missing variable given four known ones.

Example 1: A car accelerates from 0 to 20 m/s in 5 seconds. Find acceleration. Using v = u+at → 20 = 0 + a·5 → a = 4 m/s².

Example 2: A ball is dropped (u=0) from height s=44.1 m under g=9.81. Time to hit ground: s = ½gt² → 44.1 = 0.5·9.81·t² → t = 3.0 s.

Bulk usage: Prepare a CSV where each row contains values for u,v,s,a,t (use '?' for unknown) plus a column specifying which variable to solve. Ideal for vehicle braking distances, projectile motion homework, and engineering trajectory analysis.
