3 A particle moves in a straight line with constant acceleration. Its initial and final velocities are \(u\) and \(v\) respectively and at time \(t\) its displacement from its starting position is \(s\). An equation connecting these quantities is \(s = k \left( u ^ { \alpha } + v ^ { \beta } \right) t ^ { \gamma }\), where \(k\) is a dimensionless constant.

1. Use dimensional analysis to find the values of \(\alpha , \beta\) and \(\gamma\).
2. By considering the case where the acceleration is zero, determine the value of \(k\).
