Question

A train starting from rest attains a velocity of 72 km h-1 in 5 minutes Assuming that the acceleration is uniform. find acceleration​

Answer 1

Explanation:

u = 0 m/s

v = 72 km/hr = 20 m/s

t = 5 min. = 300 s

a = ?

$a = \frac{v - u}{t}$

$= \frac{20 - 0}{300} = \frac{20}{300} = 0.066 \: m {s}^{ - 2}$
