Answer» Answer: Consider the velocity-time graph of a body as shown below: The initial velocity is u at the POINT A which changes from A to B at uniform RATE in time t. Let v be the final velocity which is equal to BC in the graph. OC represents the time t. A perpendicular is DRAWN CB from point C and AD is drawn parallel to OC. BE is the perpendicular from point B to OE. The area under OABC is the distance travelled s. Distance travelled, s = area of TRAPEZIUM OABC OA + CB = u + v OC = t Therefore, v2 = u2 + 2as |
