A train is moving with a velocity of 90 km h-!. It is
brought to stop by applying the brakes which
produce a retardation of 0.5 m s? Find : (i) the
velocity after 10 s, and (ii) the time taken by the
train to come to rest. Ans. (i) 20 m s-1, (ii) 50 s
Answers
Answer:
i) v = 0
a = - 0.5 m/s²
t = ?
u = 90 × 5/18 m/s = 25 m/s
v = u + at
0 = 25 + (- 0.5) t
0= 25 - 0.5t
0.5 t = 25
t = 25 / 0.5
t = 50 s
ii) u = 90 km/h = 90 × 5/18= 25 m/s
a = - 0.5 m /s²
t = 10 s
v = u + at
v = 25 + ( - 0.5) 10
v = 25 - 5 = 20 m/s

Explanation:
i) Here, u = 90km/hr = 25m/s
a = -0.5m/s²
t = 10s
and, v = the velocity after 10 seconds
Considering, v = u+at
The velocity, v = 25+(-0.5×10)
= 25-5
= 20m/s
ii) Here, u = 90km/hr = 25m/s
a = -0.5m/s²
v = 0m/s
Considering, v = u+at
Time taken for the train to come to rest will
be:
0 = 25+(-0.5t)
0 = 25-0.5t
0.5t = 25
Therefore, t = 25/0.5
= 50s
Hope it helps....
