- For motion with constant acceleration, the relationship between distance, initial velocity, acceleration, and time is described by standard kinematic equations. - The equation $s = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2$ explicitly includes the initial velocity $u$.
If an object moves at a non-zero constant acceleration for a certain interval of time, then the distance it covers in that time
