EXPLAIN HOW v= u + at WAS DETERMINED

1 answer

The equation v=u+at is an equation of motion that describes the velocity of an object at a given time. It was determined by Isaac Newton in his Second Law of Motion, which states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force applied to it and inversely proportional to its mass. This can be expressed mathematically as F=ma, where F is the net force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration. Rearranging this equation to solve for acceleration yields a=F/m.

Combining this equation with Newton's First Law of Motion, which states that an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an external force, yields the equation v=u+at. Here, v is the velocity of the object at a given time, u is the initial velocity of the object, and t is the time elapsed since the object began moving.
