When do I use v = u + at in Kinematics, and what does it mean?

final velocity after time t under constant acceleration.

v = u + at — final velocity after time t under constant acceleration. Use it when: acceleration is constant. Always check the condition holds before plugging in numbers.

Key point

v = u + at
