What does force in a friction problem equal in a Kinematic equation?

Hi, I’m having a little difficulty doing a physics problem. I have to find the final velocity of an object in a friction problem. I have the acceleration, and the time, but I’m not sure how to get the initial velocity. Does to applied force equal this? Thanks!

GIVEN the data that you have, the working formula is

Vf – Vo = aT

where

Vf = final velocity
Vo = initial velocity
a = acceleration
T = time

Hope this helps.
