Acceleration = change in velocity / time

change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity

because the object is slowing down, the acceleration will be negative.

acceleration = (4-34) / 60
acceleration = -30 / 60
acceleration = -0.5 m/s^2

answer : the train is accelerating at -0.5 m/s^2

inn [45]
The phenomenon that is observed when an incident ray travelling in a slower medium strikes the boundary of a faster medium with an angle greater than the critical angle is known as total internal reflection.
Total internal reflection results in the the ray being reflected within the medium, instead of leaving it after undergoing diffraction. This phenomenon is the working principle of optical fibers.
