a train is travelling at the speed of 180 kilometre per hour brakes are applied so as to produce a uniform acceleration of 1 metre per second square find how far the train will go before it is brought to rest

Answer:
u=180km/h
180×5/18
=50m/s
a=1m/s^2
v=0
1st equation of motion
v=u+at
0=50+t
t=50s
s=ut+1/2at^2
s=50×50+1/2×1×(50)^2
s=2500+1250
s=3750m

Answer:
1250 metres
Explanation:
Velocity of the train is 180 km/hr which is 50 m/s ( mutiply the speed by 5/18 ).
Therefore, u = 50 m/s and v i.e the initial velocity will be 0 m/s as the train will be at rest after a certain period of time.
So, we have,
The accleration is -1 m/s^2 because the velocity will decrease as the brakes are applied. The change in velocity will be negative.
Using,
We solve for s,
Hence, the displacement ( s ) is 1250 m.
