v^2 = u^2 + 2as u = 12 a = –3 s = 18 (a) Work out a value of v. (b) Make s the subject of v^2 = u^2 + 2as

v^2 = 12^2+2(-3)(18) = 36. Therefore by square rooting v = 6.To make s the subject first minus u^2 from both sides to have v^2 -u^2 = 2as then divide 2a from both sides to have (v^2-u^2)/2a = s
