So I'm struggling with rearranging kinematic formulas. Does anyone have any steps or something to help.

Rearranging formulas is all about simple algebra rules. Just like when solving for x in an equation, you're just isolating whichever variable you want. I'll work this one out for you and hopefully it'll help, but if you need more explanation, then feel free to comment!

D = ViT + 0.5at² Subtract ViT from both sides

D - ViT = 0.5at² Divide both sides by 0.5t²

$\frac{D - ViT}{0.5t^{2} } = \frac{0.5at^{2} }{0.5t^{2} }$ I wrote this step out a little more to show how your fraction will cancel

$\frac{D - ViT}{0.5t^{2} }$ = a I like to flip these around so the single variable is on the right

a = $\frac{D - ViT}{0.5t^{2} }$

How is velocity ratio of wheel and axle calculatedaad<br>

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

VR = $\frac{Radius of wheel}{Radius of axle}$

Explanation:

A machine is a device that can be used to overcome a load by the application of an effort through a pivot. Examples are: pulleys, wedge, screw jack, wheel and axle etc.

The wheel and axle is a simple device that can be used to lift a load through a height. Its velocity ratio (VR) can be determined by:

VR = $\frac{Radius of wheel}{Radius of axle}$

Note that for a practical wheel and axle, the radius of the wheel is greater than the radius of the axle.
