Homework Statement
Derive the equation v^2 = u^2 + 2as
I have no clue how to do this please can someone help!
Thank you!
gneill, I am sure you are correct but you can also derive this equation from two basic equations and energy principals are not required.
If you use energy, then you have to introduce mass and this is not necessary.
So why complicate a simple problem?
Note that this equation is assuming that acceleration, the derivative of velocity with respect to time, is constant. This is, then, just a simple exercise in calculus.Homework Statement
