I am stuck on this math problem.
I forgot how to convert from meters per square second to meters per second.
Here's the problem:

If a pronghorn antelope accelerates from rest in a straight line with a constant acceleration of 1.4 m/s^2, how long does it take the antelope to reach a speed of 25 m/s?

I don't want the answer, but it is okay to give it. ;)

What I really need to know is how to do it! :oops:

that should be something like

a=v/t

v=V2.a.s

the big V is "to extract a root" but i dont have the symbol for it
a=acceleration
v=speed
t=time
s=distance

good luck :)
