Question
The “mean-speed theorem” for finding average velocity under constant acceleration, proposed by the Oxford Calculators, and demonstrated geometrically by Nicole Oresme, is expressed algebraically as:
- density = weight/volume
- (m1)(v1) = (m2)(v2)
- (vm) = 1/2 (v0 + vf)
- s = (v0)(t) + 1/2 (a)(t2)
- velocity = distance/time
