17. A train is travelling at a speed of 90 km/h. Brakes are applied, so as to produce a
uniform acceleration of -0.5 m/s2. Find how
far the train will go before it is brought to rest?
Pg 110​

x = 625 m

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we use the kinematics relations

          v² = v₀² - 2 a x

indicate that the train stops therefore its final speed is zero (v = 0)

           0 = v₀² - 2a x

           x =

let's slow down to the SI system

           v₀ = 90 km / h (1000 m / 1km) (1h / 3600 s) = 25 m / s

let's calculate

           x =

           x = 625 m

energy can be converted from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed in ordinary chemical or physical means. do not understand what you are asking but hope this

the answer to this is proletariats.

hope this : )
