The diagram is the speed-time graph representing part of a train's journey. [Figure X.X - speed-time graph] The train slows down uniformly from a speed of 40 m/s to a speed of 24 m/s in a time of 20 seconds. It then slows down uniformly for a further 40 seconds, until it stops.
- (a)Find the deceleration between t = 20 and t = 60.[1]
- (b)Find the speed when t = 50.[1]
- (c)Find the distance travelled from t = 0 to t = 20.[2]
This question uses a diagram from the original paper, which isn't shown here. Open the full paper from the past papers archive to see it.
