SUVAT equations describe

Motion under constant acceleration

Condition for SUVAT equations to apply

Acceleration must be constant

In SUVAT, ss represents

Displacement

In SUVAT, uu represents

Initial velocity

In SUVAT, vv represents

Final velocity

First SUVAT equation

v=u+atv = u + at

Second SUVAT equation

s=(u+v)2ts = \frac{(u + v)}{2} t

Third SUVAT equation

s=ut+12at2s = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2

SUVAT equation without tt

v2=u2+2asv^2 = u^2 + 2as

Gradient of vv-tt graph represents

Acceleration

Area under vv-tt graph represents

Displacement

Second SUVAT equation derived from

Trapezium area under vv-tt graph
