Assign the results from a Solve to variable(s)

I want to assign the results of a Solve command in a list. For example Solve[-((287 s^3)/50) == 0, s] returns {{s -> 0}, {s -> 0}, {s -> 0}} I want it to return {0,0,0}. Can this be done automatically and not manually? Thank you very much

You can use

s = Solve[-((287 s^3)/50) == 0, s][[All,1,2]]

To get

s = {0,0,0}

...or s /. Solve[-((287 s^3)/50) == 0, s] – J. M.'s missing motivation Nov 17 '12 at 15:57
Solve[-((287 s^3)/50) == 0, s][[All, 1, 2]] more than Solve[-((287 s^3)/50) == 0, s][[All,2]] – Öskå Nov 17 '12 at 15:58

Ok thank you very much, you are very quick with your answers and helpful. I have been trying to find it for some time but couldn't, now i'll go check out more details in the documents about 'part'. Thanks a lot – Lazaros Moysis Nov 17 '12 at 16:02
