equation of motion for a particle having uniform acceleration
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
see diagram, a particle starts to move from A with velocity u and a constant acceleration acting on particle is a. after time t, particle reach the point B where velocity of particle is v.
from definition of acceleration, slope of velocity time graph gives acceleration,
so acceleration, a = (v - u)/t
or, at = v - u
⇒[ v = u + at ].....(1)
again, we know, displacement is equal to area under the velocity time graph.
area of AOEB = displacement, s = 1/2 [AO + BE ] × OE
or, s = 1/2 (u + v) × t
or, s = 1/2 (u + u + at) × t [ from eq. (1) ]
or, s = 1/2 (2u + at) × t
⇒[ s = ut + 1/2at² ]......(2)
squaring equation (1),
v² = (u + at)²
= u² + a²t² + 2uat
= u² + 2a(1/2at² + ut)
= u² + 2a(ut + 1/2 at²)
= u² + 2as [ from eq . (2) ]
⇒[v² = u² + 2as ].......(3)
