A light-rail train going from one station to the next on a straight section of track accelerates from rest at 1.1m/s^2 for 20s.

It then proceeds at constant speed for 1100 m before slowing down at 2.2m/s^2 until it stops at the station. a. What is the distance between the stations? b. How much time does it take the train to go between the stations?

Answer:

A.) 1430 metres

B.) 80 seconds

Explanation:

Given that the train accelerates from rest at 1.1m/s^2 for 20s. The initial velocity U will be:

U = acceleration × time

U = 1.1 × 20 = 22 m/s

It then proceeds at constant speed for 1100 m

Then, time t will be

Time = distance/ velocity

Time = 1100/22

Time = 50 s

before slowing down at 2.2m/s^2 until it stops at the station.

Deceleration = velocity/time

2.2 = 22/t

t = 22/2.2

t = 10s

Using area under the graph, the distance between the two stations will be :

(1/2 × 22 × 20) + 1100 + (1/2 × 22 × 10)

220 + 1100 + 110

1430 m

The time taken between the two stations will be

20 + 50 + 10 = 80 seconds

The acceleration is the principal subordinate of the speed if the speed is steady the subsidiary is invalid if the speed is diminishing the subsidiary is negative. When discussing so much stuff we consider the momentary esteem.

<span>Note that when you back off, you back off by and large yet can locally in time quicken a tiny bit, suppose amid 1/tenth of a sec since you achieved a segment of the street which was slanting. In any case, this does not change the way that when the speed diminishes, the quickening is negative.</span>

Take 68.2/60 = 1.137 hr
take 56.9/1.137 = 50.043 mi/hr

take 189/211 = 0.896

24.8/2 = 12.4 m
12.4/82.3 = 0.15s

The correct answer to the question is: A) miles/hour and B) metre/ second.

EXPLANATION:

Before answering this question, first we have to understand speed.

The speed of a body is defined as the rate of distance travelled or the distance travelled by a body per unit time.

Hence, it is a derived quantity which is obtained from distance and time.

The unit of distance can be metre, miles, and the unit of time can be second, minutes or hour.

As speed is the distance covered per unit time, the perfect units will be miles/hour and metre/second.

Hence, the correct options are first and second.
