Example A train travelling with constnat velocity of 25 m/s comes to rest, after applying the brakes. Give that the brakes produced a cantant deceleration of 5 ms-2, calculate the distance covered bty the train in coming to rest. Solution (a) Given data: u = 24, v = 0, a = -5 need: s v2 = u2 + 2as Required equation: 0 = 242 – 2 x 5 x s Give s = 57.6 m.
