Answer:

a) Travel time = 60.56 s

b) Maximum speed = 36.33 m/s

Explanation:

a)  Distance = 1.1 km = 1100 m

 A subway train accelerates at +1.2 m/s² from rest  through the first half of the distance and decelerates at −1.2 m/s² through the second half.

 So half the distance is traveled at an acceleration of +1.2 m/s².

 We have equation of motion [tex]s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]

 Substituting

         [tex]\frac{1100}{2}=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 1.2t^2\\\\t=30.28s[/tex]

 Travel time = 2 x 30.28 = 60.56 s

b) We have equation of motion v = u+at

   Substituting t = 30.28 s and a = 1.2 m/s²

   v = 0 + 1.2 x 30.28 = 36.33 m/s

   Maximum speed = 36.33 m/s

c) Photos of graphs are given

Answer:

a) ttotal=60.58 s

b) v^2=36.3 m/s

c) the attached photo shows the graphics.

Explanation:

a) we have the following:

S1=1.1x10^-3/2=550 m

a=1.2 m/s

we have the following formula:

v^2=u^2+2as

replacing values:

v^2=0+(2*1.2*550)=36.33 m/s

The time is equal to:

t1=v/a=36.33/1.2=30.3 s

we have the following:

u=36.33 m/s

v=0

S=550 m/s

using the following expression:

v=u+at2

clearing t2:

t2=(v-u)/a=(0-36.33)/-1.2=30.28 s

ttotal=t1+t2=30.3+30.28=60.58 s

b) the mass speed is equal to:

v^2=u^2+2as=36.3 m/s
