The Five SUVAT Equations (Constant Acceleration Only)

#EquationMissing Var
1v = u + ats
2s = ut + \frac{1}{2}$$at^2v
3v2v^2 = u2u^2 + 2ast
4s = (u+v)t/2a
5sns_n = u + a2n12\frac{2n-1}{2}v (nth second)

Dimensional check for Eq 2: [s] = [L], [ut] = [LT1LT^{-1}][T] = [L], [\frac{1}{2}$$at^2] = [LT2LT^{-2}][T2T^2] = [L]. Consistent.

Critical condition: These equations are INVALID for variable acceleration. Use calculus (v = dsdt\frac{ds}{dt}, a = dvdt\frac{dv}{dt}) instead.
