[Phys-l] jerk formulas



In physics terms, I know what a jerk is, but I was curious of how it would be shown in the typical algebraic formulas we commonly use. Can anyone show me how the jerk would be shown in the following formulas?

vi = initial velocity
vf = final velocity
d = displacement
a = acceleration
t = time

vf = vi + (a t)
d = (vi t) + (0.5 a t^2)
vf = sqrt(vi^2 + 2 a d)

Thanks,
Dwight
