Explanation:
There are 5 kinematic equations, and 5 variables.
Each question will give you 3 variables and ask you to solve for a fourth.
To determine which equation to use, look at which variable is not included in the problem.
For example, if the question does not include time, then you need to use a kinematic equation that does not have t in it. That would be:
v² = v₀² + 2aΔx
Or, if the question does not include the final velocity, then you need a kinematic equation that does not have v in it. That would be:
Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²
