Question

Trying to figure out how to prove the exercise on the bottom of the page.

We usually write this in the form
1
(v²(1) - v² (0)] + (0). 31,and bus suis
2a
This equation, which of course holds only for constant acceleration since it comes from
our
handy equations for the special case,
and at t₁ we have
be very useful.
Before going to examples lets show first that our three equations for the special case
so much
of constant acceleration can be put in yet another form which does not depend
on when we started our clock or where we called a = 0. For example at t = 12 we hau
v(t₂) = at₂ + v(0)
v²(t)- v²(0) = 2a [z(t)-(0)].
Or
Subtracting the second from the first gives
and subtracting,
v(t₁) = at₁ +v(0).
v(t₂) = a (t₂-t₁) + v(t₁).
This really says the same thing as the original equation: The velocity at the end of a time
interval is the velocity at the beginning plus the acceleration times the time interval.
Doing the same thing for the second equation we have
v(t₂) - v(t₁)= a(t₂-t₁)
z(t₂) =
z(t₁) =
at² +v(0)t₂ + x(0)

at² +v(0)t₁ + 2(0)

x(t₂) - x(t₁) == a. (t²-1²)+v(0) (t₂-t₁)
