Question

a train starting from stationary position and moving with uniform acceleration attains a speed of 36 km per hour in 10 minutes find its acceleration

Answer 1

We have,
v = u+at

where v = final velocity; u = initial velocity; a = acceleration and t = time taken.

v = 36km/hr = 10m/s
u = 0
t = 10min = 600s.

.°. 10 = 0 + 600a

a = 10/600 = (1/60)m/s
