Which equation of motion connects velocity, acceleration, and displacement (without time)?

Answer: v² = u² + 2as.

  • A v = u + at
  • B s = ut + ½at²
  • C v² = u² + 2as
  • D s = (u+v)t/2

Correct answer: C. v² = u² + 2as

Explanation: v² = u² + 2as directly links velocity and displacement without requiring time.

tvuvTΔtΔvslope = aarea = displacement (s)

On a velocity-time graph for uniform acceleration, the slope of the line gives the acceleration and the shaded area under the line gives the displacement.
