Question

Someone help please?
d = ut + 0.5at2 solve for a?

Answer 1

Does this come with a little short story?

Answer 2

No, that's all they gave me. /:

Answer 3

The distance traveled by an object can be modeled by the equation d = ut + 0.5at2 where d = distance, u = initial velocity, t = time, and a = acceleration. Solve this formula for a. Show all steps in your work.

Answer 5

thank you :)

Answer 6

No problem

Answer 7

\[d=ut+0.5at ^{2}\ ............(1)\]
To solve for a, the first step is to get the term containing a on its own, by subtracting ut from both sides of equation (1). Can you do that and post the result?

Answer 8

I'll try too...
