hi gordy2607

Welcome to the forum.:)

Are you meaning equations like:

'F' stands for the force needed to give a mass 'm' an acceleration of 'a'.

And then, if 'a' is constant, an object that starts with initial velocity 'u', will reach final velocity 'v' after a time 't'.

(There are more like this.)

Post back to say is this is the sort of thing you are after and we can begin a dialogue on this.
