Question 1 Report
The formula we want to solve for u is E = (m/2g)(v^2 - u^2).
To make u the subject of the formula, we need to isolate u on one side of the equation by performing the necessary algebraic operations.
First, we'll simplify the right side of the equation:
E = (m/2g)(v^2 - u^2)
2gE/m = v^2 - u^2 // Multiply both sides by 2g/m
Next, we'll isolate u^2 by adding it to both sides of the equation:
2gE/m + u^2 = v^2
Finally, we'll solve for u by taking the square root of both sides of the equation:
u = sqrt(v^2 - 2gE/m)
Therefore, the value of u as the subject of the formula is:
u = sqrt(v^2 - 2gE/m)
Option A is the correct answer.
