Calculating distance and time during nth second while object is accelerating
How do I find:
- distance traveled during the nth second
- time taken to travel the nth metre
while an object is accelerating or decelerating?

Note for OP
+solved @user to close the thread when your doubt is solved. Mention the user who helped you solve the doubt. This will be added to their stats.U can use formula s = ut + 1/2 at*2
distance in nth second: s= u+ (a/2)*(2n-1)
Use Galileo Method to calculate distance in nth second for free falling obj.
no..
yah this is right.
whats that method?
@idk you can also solve it by basic method for ex if you want to calculate the distance travelled in 4th sec just calculate the distance travelled in 4 secs and distance travelled in 5 secs and then just subtract it distance travelled in 5 seconds - distance travelled in 4 seconds = distance travelled in 4th second..
Look up Namo Kaul galileo method on yt. Its like an easy relation b/w distance travelled in nth second for free falling body with u=0 and const accln. I wish i could link it for you but i have YT blocked for the next 15 days 😅
but for that youll need to find the velocity after 4th second and velocity after 5th second also
2 more lengthy equations to solve
alr ty
You can apply Equation of motion if u hve initial velocity and acceleration , even if you apply formula you’ll need initial velocity and acceleration
@idk
Nth second ke lie tumhe n sec ka s - n-1 sec ka s nikalna padega
Why no
S(n) - S(n-1)
The literal derivation lol
Derive aman ne jo bola usi se hoga
yes
