Given that the subway stations are 930 m apart, the train have to be accerelated for half the distance and then decerelated for the rest of the distance.

Recall that the distance travelled by an object with an initial velocity, u, for a period of time, t, at an accereration, a, is given by
s=ut+ \frac{1}{2} at^2

But, we assume that the train accelerates from rest, thus
s=\frac{1}{2} at^2 \\  \\ \Rightarrow465=\frac{1}{2}(1.74)t^2 \\  \\ \Rightarrow t^2=534.48 \\  \\  \Rightarrow t=\sqrt{534.48}=23.12

The maximum speed is attained at half the center of the distance between subway stations (i.e. at distance = 465 m).

Thus, maximum speed = distance / time = 465 / 23.12 = 20.11 m/s.

Helppp pleaseeeeee I don’t understand
Crank

Answer: x=32, y=45, z=45

Step-by-step explanation:

Now, x is cut in half on a flat plane which is a supplementary angle (2 angles that add up to 180 degrees) so just subtract 148 from 180 and you get 32.

Since a line cuts y and z equally in half and the line it is connected to is perpendicular (right angle), we can safely say both angles are equal to 45 degrees.
