calculate displacement using acceleration in matlab

To calculate displacement using acceleration in Matlab, you can use the following formula:

main.m
d = 0.5 * a * t^2

where d is the displacement, a is the acceleration, and t is the time.

Here's an example code snippet to calculate the displacement when given the acceleration and time:

main.m
a = 2.5; % acceleration in m/s^2
t = 5; % time in seconds

d = 0.5 * a * t^2;

disp(['The displacement is ', num2str(d), ' meters.']);
135 chars
7 lines

This would output: The displacement is 31.25 meters.
