Equation of motions - (Concept)

There are three equations of motion

  1. The first kinematical equation of motion (velocity-time equation)

Formula

$
v=u+a t
$

$v=$ Final velocity
$\mathrm{u}=$ Initial velocity
$A=$ acceleration

$
\mathrm{T}=\text { time }
$

2. The second kinematical equation of motion (Position-time equation)

Formula
$s=u t+\frac{1}{2} a t^2$
$s \rightarrow$ Displacement
$u \rightarrow$ Initial velocity
$a \rightarrow$ acceleration
$t \rightarrow$ time


3. The third kinematical equation of motion (Velocity-displacement equation)

Formula

$
v^2-u^2=2 a s
$
 

$v \rightarrow $ Final Velocity
$s \rightarrow$ Displacement
$u \rightarrow$ Initial velocity
$a \rightarrow$ acceleration

Displacement in nth second
Formula: $S_n=u+\frac{a}{2}(2 n-1)$
Where $u=$ Initial velocity
$a=$ uniform acceleration

If the velocity of an object is v_{0} at t = 0 and v at time t, we have

\bar{a}= \frac{v-v_{0}}{t-0}

or , v=v_{0}+at
