A train has a final velocity of 110 km/h. It accelerated for 36 s at 0.50 m/s2 . What was its initial velocity

Sagot :

The initial velocity of the train  is 12.56 m/s.

Initial velocity

The initial velocity of the train can be determined by using the first kinematic equation as shown below;

v = u + at

u = v - at

where;

  • v is the final velocity = 110 km/h = 30.56 m/s
  • u is the initial velocity

u = 30.56 - (36 x 0.5)

u = 12.56 m/s

Thus, the initial velocity of the train  is 12.56 m/s.
