Force → Acceleration → Velocity → Position

Sometimes the position vector is unknown but the force or the acceleration are known as a function of time. It is then possible to integrate the acceleration to find the velocity and integrate the velocity to find the position.

$$ \vec{F}\text{ [N]},$$ $$\vec{a}=\frac{\vec{F}}{m}\, [\text{m/s}^2],$$ $$ \vec{v}= \int\limits_{t_0}^{t} \vec{a}(t') dt' + \vec{v}(t_0)\text{ [m/s]},$$ $$ \vec{r}=\int\limits_{t_0}^{t} \vec{v}(t')dt' + \vec{r}(t_0)\text{ [m]}.$$
