Here's how to simplify and use suvat equations in physics - #shorts
Here we are discussing a set of 5 equations that only apply to objects moving (1) in a straight line, and (2) moving with constant acceleration. There are other equations for when one of these conditions is not met of course. #suvat #kinematics #physics
The suvat equations are named as such because they deal with the displacement (s), initial velocity (u), final velocity (v), acceleration (a), and time (t) related to the motion of an object.
The beautiful thing about these equations is that if we know any three quantities relating to a particular object, we can find a fourth (and fifth too). Simply choose the equation that contains the three quantities we know, and the fourth that we are trying to find, rearrange it to solve for the unknown quantity, and then substitute in the known values. In future videos, we will discuss how these equations are derived too!
The suvat equations fall under the area of classical physics known as "kinematics". This area of study deals with the motion of (usually) point particles, without considering any of the forces that actually make the particle move. And we can clearly see that the suvat equations only deal with s, u, v, a, t, and not any forces.
I personally studied this topic at GCSE physics and then in A Level physics (though I'm sure it's taught worldwide), and at first I struggled to fully grasp the point of these equations and how they were to be used.
