Question

The final velocity of an object moving in one dimension is given by the formula v = u + at, where u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time. Solve this equation for t.

To solve for t, first
both sides of the equation.

Answer 1

First part (is subtract U from)

Answer 2

Given problem;

We are to make t, the subject of the expression v = u + at.

The equation is one of the equations of motion.

Usually, v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time taken.

To make "t" the subject of the expression; follow these steps;

v = u + at

1. Subtract "u" from both sides;

v (-u) = u (-u) + at

2. the expression is now;

v - u = at

3. now multiply both sides by
`(1)/(a)` to isolate "t";

`(1)/(a)`(v - u) = at x
`(1)/(a)`

t =
`(v - u)/(a)`
