Oct 22, 2012 at 15:32 comment added Alan Rominger You are correct that you need more than just that equation. The other kinematic equation you might want to use is $x=1/2 a t^2$, which uses the fact that you started from rest and had a constant acceleration. I'd advise reading a basic kinematics tutorial online.

It seems the homework tag applies even if it is not actual homework;
