Question 102

Multiple Choice

A train starts from rest and accelerates uniformly until it has traveled 5.6 km and acquired a forward velocity of 42 m/s42 \mathrm {~m} / \mathrm { s } The train then moves at a constant velocity of 42 m/s42 \mathrm {~m} / \mathrm { s } for 420 s.The train then slows down uniformly at 0.065 m/s20.065 \mathrm {~m} / \mathrm { s } ^ { 2 } until it is brought to a halt.The acceleration during the first 5.6 km of travel is closest to which of the following?


A) 0.16 m/ s2\mathrm { s }^2
B) 0.14 m/ s2\mathrm { s }^2
C) 0.17 m/ s2\mathrm { s }^2
D) 0.19 m/ s2\mathrm { s }^2
E) 0.20 m/ s2\mathrm { s }^2
