Answer:


a=(v-u)/(t)

Explanation:

Given the equation:


v=u+at

We want to make 'a' the subject of the equation.

First, subtract u from both sides of the equation:


\begin{gathered} v-u=u-u+at \\ at=v-u \end{gathered}

Next, divide both sides by t:


\begin{gathered} (at)/(t)=(v-u)/(t) \\ a=(v-u)/(t) \end{gathered}

The formula rearranged with a as the subject is:


a=(v-u)/(t)
