The final velocity, v, of an object under constant acceleration can be found using the formula v2= v2 + 2as, where v is the initial velocity (in meters per second), a is acceleration (in meters per second), and s is the distance (in meters). what is the formula solved for a?

Whenever you work any "solve for" problem, you start by looking at what is done to the variable of interest. Here, a is multiplied by 2s and added to v². You must reverse these operations, generally in reverse order.

V² -v² = 2as . . . . . . . . subtract v²

(V² -v²)/(2s) = a . . . . . divide by the coefficient of a

Solved for a, the formula is ...

... a = (V² -v²)/(2s)
