Answer:
T = 60 s
Explanation:
There are 6 poles on the track which are equally spaced
so the angular separation between the poles is given as
so the angular speed of the train is given as
now we have time period of the train given as
You are driving at 40 miles per hour and you speed up to 60 miles per hour over the course of 20 miles. How long were

1) Analyze the equation
Vₓ = α + β t²
Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 t²
That is a quadratic equation, so the graph is a parabola.
2) Therefore, take into account that the main points to draw a parabola are:
i) vertex
ii) concavity
iii) y-intercepts
iv) x - intercepts
Also, for all graphs you need the domain and the range.
3) Find the y-intercept (t = 0)
t = 0 ⇒ Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (0)² = 3.00
4) Find the x-intercepts (Vₓ = 0)
Vₓ = 0 ⇒ 0 = 3.00 + 0.100 t²
⇒ t² = - 3.00 / 0.100 = -30.0. Since t² cannot be negative, there is not x-intercepts.
5) Concavity
Since, the coefficient of t² is positive, the parabola open upwards.
6) Vertex
It is the local minimum of the equation. You can find it by the first derivative
Vₓ' = 2×0.100 t = 0 ⇒ t = 0
Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (0)² = 3.00 m/s
⇒ vertex = (0,3.00)
7) The domain is given t ∈ [0,5.00]
8) You can also build a table with several points in the domain
t =0; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (0)² = 0
t = 1; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (1)² = 3.10
t = 2; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (2)² = 3.40
t = 3; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (3)² = 3.90
t = 4; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (4)² = 4.60
t = 5; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (5)² = 5.50
9) Range: Vₓ ∈ [ 3.00, 5.50]
10) All that information permits you to put several points in a coordinate sysment and sketch the same graph as the shown in the figure attached.
