Question

derive first equation of motion

Answer 1

 First equation of Motion:

V = u + at
soln.
Consider a body of mass “m” having initial velocity “u”.Let after time “t” its final velocity becomes “v” due to uniform acceleration “a”.

Now we know that:
Acceleration = change in velocity/Time taken

=> Acceleration = Final velocity-Initial velocity / time taken

=> a = v-u /t
=>at = v-u

or v = u + at
This is the first equation of motion.

Answer 2

1) First equation of Motion:

V = u + at

soln.

Consider a body of mass “m” having initial velocity “u”.Let after time “t” its final velocity becomes “v” due to uniform acceleration “a”.

Now we know that:

Acceleration = change in velocity/Time taken

=> Acceleration = Final velocity-Initial velocity / time taken

=> a = v-u /t

=>at = v-u

or v = u + at
