Formula
Constant acceleration in two dimensions

When the acceleration  is constant we have two sets of equations to describe the x and y coordinates. In the following, motion of the particle begins at t = 0; the initial position of the particle is given by
And its initial velocity is given by
And vector   is constant
Hence Equation becomes

Formula
Constant acceleration in three dimensions
When the acceleration  is constant we have three sets of equations to describe the x, y and z coordinates. In the following, motion of the particle begins at t = 0; the initial position of the particle is given by
And its initial velocity is given by
And vector   is constant
Hence Equation becomes

Formula
Third equation of motion
Let,
s -displacement of object startig from rest
u - initial velocity
v - final velocity
t - time of travel
Acceleration is defined as the time rate of change of velocity.

multiply and divide numerator and denominator of  R.H.S. by 


hence


integrating bothsides, we get
