Example 3
A car moves from station A to station D in 40 seconds. During that travel, he went through the
station B and station C. Trip from station A to station B takes 10 seconds with an acceleration of
-2
16 ms . While traveling from station B to station C takes 15 seconds with an acceleration of 8 ms -
2 . For the last 15 seconds, it moves with uniform decelaration to stop at the station D. Calculate:
i. Maximum velocity is reached.
ii. Decelaration in the last 15 seconds.
iii. Total distance traveled.
