@MrNood You might want to update or get a different antivirus software. Gyazo is a harmless image host. To calculate the acceleration you can use the following formula because you start without an initial velocity: \[s=0.5*a*t^2\] \[a=\dfrac{2s}{t^2 }\] To calculate the velocity, merely multiply the acceleration and the time.

You have to take in account the angle of this slope as well... One second... are you familiar with calculus based physics?

\[a = dv/dt \]\[a*dt = dv\]\[\int\limits_{0}^{\Delta t}a*dt = \int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2}dv\]\[a*\Delta t = v_2-v_1\]
