    Work, Energy and Power - Variable Acceleration

    Thanks so much for that! I wasn't actually taught that and my teacher says that is the only way. It seems so much easier (and it, plus it's right!) Going to be a fun lesson tomorrow

    Work, Energy and Power - Variable Acceleration

    Thanks for the replies. I've tried to understand them as best I can however we have not been taught an awful lot on integration. From ehlid's reply I managed to get the following: 900 = {125}\int_0^T{dt} That's as far as I could get. Do you know of any places where I can find the pure maths...
