SUVAT Equations

The SUVAT equations are a collection of 5 equations pertaining to constant acceleration. They are named SUVAT after the terms of which they involve.

1. $v = u + at$
2. $s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2$
3. $s = \frac{1}{2}(u + v)t$
4. $v^2 = u^2 + 2as$
5. $s = vt - \frac{1}{2}at^2$

Its worth noting that only equation 4 is used at GCSE-level, and it will be provided on the equation sheet - in addition AQA provide the equation in a different form.
