( 24 ) Derive an equation for position - velocity relation by graphical method (Draw graph)
2as = v^2 -u^2
Answers
Answer:
Let the initial velocity of the object = u
Let the object is moving with uniform acceleration, a.
Let object reaches at point B after time, t and its final velocity becomes, v
Draw a line parallel to x-axis DA from point, D from where object starts moving.
Draw another line BA from point B parallel to y-axis which meets at E at y-axis.
The distance covered by the object moving with uniform acceleration is given by the area of trapezium ABDO
Therefore,
Area of trapezium ABDOE =
2
1
× (sum of parallel sides + distance between parallel sides)
Distance(S)=

(DO+BE)×OE
S=

(u+v)×t...............(i)
we know that,
a=
t
v−u
from above equation we can say,
t=
a
v−u
...........(ii)
After substituting the value of t from equation(ii) in equation (i)
S=
2a

(u+v)(v−u)
2aS=(u+v)(v−u)
2aS=v
