Verified answer
initial velocity(u)=36km/hr=10m/s
Final velocity(v)=54km/hr=15m/s
Time=10 seconds.
Using first equation of motion to derive the value of Acceleration
v=u+at
15m=10+10a
5=10a
a=1/2m/s^2
Now,
we know the value of a
Using the equation 2 to find the distance
s=ut+1/2a(t)^2.
s=10×10+1/2×1/2×100
s=100+25m
S=125.
Thus,The distance travelled by train is 125m.
