Derive the equation v=u+at ?
Answers
Explanation:
Consider a body having initial velocity 'u'. Suppose it is subjected to a uniform acceleration 'a' so that after time 't' its final velocity becomes 'v'. Now, from the definition of acceleration we know that:
Acceleration =
Time taken
Change in velocity
or Acceleration =
time taken
Final velocity- Initial velocity
So, a=
t
v−u
at=v−u
and, v=u+at
where v= final velocity of the body
u= initial velocity of the body
a= acceleratio
and t= time taken

Answer:
v = u + at
Which is First equation of motion
So , to derive it I am going to use Integration method
In the equation v = u+ at ….
v = final velocity
u = initial velocity
a = acceleration
t = time period of acceleration
Here we should note that acceleration is constant
We know that
a = dv/dt
So
dv = adt
Now integrating both sides
