Q1Kinematics of Motion in a Straight LineFree sample

The diagram shows the velocity-time graph for a train which travels from rest at one station to rest at the next station. The graph consists of three straight line segments. The distance between the two stations is 9040 m9040\text{ m}.

(i)

Find the acceleration of the train during the first 40 s40\text{ s}.

1M
(ii)

Find the length of time for which the train is travelling at constant speed.

2M
(iii)

Find the distance travelled by the train while it is decelerating.
