Equations of motion

The three equations of motion give a relation between various physical quantities dealing with state of motion of an object.
If we consider a body having some initial velocity u.It attains a velocity v in time t by having a continuous acceleration a.
The three  equations of motion are:
Velocity - Time Relation
v=u + at
Position -Time Relation
s = ut + (1/2) at^2
Position - Velocity Relation
v^2  - u^2 = 2 as
Where s denotes the position of the object.
They can be derived with the help of a v-t graph
