    How to Rearrange the Formula d=Vft-1/2at^2 to Solve for a

    Homework Statement rearrange the formula d=Vft-1/2at^2 to solve for a Homework Equations d = Vft-1/2at^2 d+ 1/2at^2 = Vft 1/2at^2 = Vft-d 1/2a = Vft-d / t^2 then does a = 2 (Vft-d / t^2) The Attempt at a Solution

    Potential difference between plates

    part c of the question is, if the acceleration of a charged particle between the plates is a when it is halfway between the plates, why will the particle acceleration experience the same acceleration if it is only one quarter the distance between the plates? defend your answer... Ok so i...

    Potential difference between plates

    i just noticed a little hint in the question 'NB 1Vm-1 is equivalent to 1NC-1 so from the Vm-1 does that mean that the F=V/d? could it be that simple

    Potential difference between plates

    does the F in this question equal the force of the electric field or does the F mean the E int the equation Electric field = force/charge... i know that might osund a bit weird but the way i read the question F = E= f/c... i think i am going the long way about this but so far i have arranged...

    Potential difference between plates

    Hmmm bad day with spelling i guess...:rolleyes: work done = force x distance

    Projectile motion - small rock thrown at beehive

    ok so this is what i got hopefully its the last for this... i am assuming that Vx is the velocity in the horizontal direction as we have said throughout the problem... so here goes Vo^2 - Vx^2/2 = gh 18ms-10.32ms/2 = 9.8ms x h 108.7488/9.8ms = h h= 11.1m please let that be right...

    Equations for Ideal Heat Engine Efficiency Calculation and Exhaust Temperature

    ok now when i put the values in the new equation -Tc= E x Th - Th -Tc= (0.62 x 600K) - 600K -Tc = -228K could i then make them both positive as they would cancel each other out?? Tc= 228K

    Projectile motion - small rock thrown at beehive

    Thank you that feet really threw me off... i can understand what formula you were using i couldn't understand how to rearrange that KE+PE equation to get what i wanted.. no the question only states that it was thrown from the ground at the 55* angle so i don't thnk we have to factor any extra...
