Question

A train is moving with a velocity of 90 km/h. It is brought to stop by applying brakes which produce a retardation of 0.5 m s-2. Find the velocity after 10 s and time taken by the train to come at rest

Answer 1

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

Answer 2

Explanation:

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
