Question 505070: I hope it's the right category...... Anyway, I understand I can use formula Y=VoT + 1/2 AyT^2 (Y= total displacement, Vot is initial velocity, Ay is acceleration on the Y axid, and T is time). I understand that if Vo=0, the VoT cancels out, which leaves me Y= 1/2 AyT^2 to work with. I can understand in order to find T, the formula then becomes T= square route 2Y/Ay. Except where does the 2 in the 2Y/Ay come from???? Please explain where this 2 is coming from.... it's driving me batty :)

batty, huh...

you multiply the equation by 2 to clear the fraction (1/2)
