Question
Solve the equation
Solve for a
Solve for m
Solve for v
a=0a=mv1
Evaluate
v×1×m×1×a×1=v2m2a2
Any expression multiplied by 1 remains the same
vma=v2m2a2
Add or subtract both sides
vma−v2m2a2=0
Expand the expression
More Steps

Evaluate
vma−v2m2a2
Expand the expression
mva−v2m2a2
Expand the expression
mva−m2v2a2
mva−m2v2a2=0
Factor the expression
More Steps

Evaluate
mva−m2v2a2
Rewrite the expression
mva−mvamva
Factor out mva from the expression
mva(1−mva)
mva(1−mva)=0
When the product of factors equals 0,at least one factor is 0
mva=01−mva=0
Solve the equation for a
a=01−mva=0
Solution
More Steps

Evaluate
1−mva=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−mva=0−1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−mva=−1
Divide both sides
−mv−mva=−mv−1
Divide the numbers
a=−mv−1
Divide the numbers
a=mv1
a=0a=mv1
