    Solving Acceleration Problems with Variables Explained

    I put the following x=11 T=0.65 a=10.5 m/s(squared) v=44 km/h Now I would have to plug the above into one of these v=V(not) + at x=V(not)t + 1/2at(Squared) V(Squared) =V(not) + 2ax This is where I get confused. I do not know which equation to use. I am thinking I would...

    Solving Acceleration Problems with Variables Explained

    Hello! in Physics we just started acceleration We were givin 3 equations v=V(not) + at x=V(not)t + 1/2at(Squared) V(Squared) =V(not) + 2ax Can someone please explain the variables and how to figure them out. With those equations I need to figure problems like this The...
