Im wondering if somebody can show me how to derive the five equations used to solve these types of problems. I've been unsuccesful in finding it on the net and am hoping someone on here can give me some insight. Thanks in advance.

A Google search for "derivation of equations for constant acceleration" led me to http://www.ac.wwu.edu/~vawter/PhysicsNet/Topics/Kinematics/ConstantAccEqMotion.html , among others, in less than five minutes.

thanks I think I typed in derivative which caused me to get a bunch of calculus articles.
