Question

u=4 a=3 s=? v²=8 (use this formula v²=u²+2as)​

Answer 1

Answer:

We will use both of the equations of motion to reach the third equation of motion. This will require a bit of algebra.

S=ut+

1

at

andv=u+at, include the time variant t

There will be some situations when we do not have any information about time and so it would be a good idea to derive an equation that does not have a t term.

To do this, we rearrange our first equation to get

t=

a

v−u

and use this to replace t wherever it appears in the second equation. So

S=ut+

at

becomes,

S=u(

a

v−u

)+

⇒2aS=2u(v−u)+(v−u)

⇒2aS=2uv−2u

⇒2aS=v
