Q. A train stopping at two stations 4 km apart takes 4 min on the journey from one of the station to the other. Assuming that it first accelerates with a uniform acceleration x and then that of uniform retardation y, prove that

\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y} = 2.

Q. A train starts from station A with a uniform acceleration

a_{1}

for some distance and then goes with uniform retardation

a_{2}

for some more distance to come to rest at station B. The distance between stations A and B is 4 km and the train takes 1/15 h to complete this journey. If accelerations are
in km per minute, find value of

\frac{1}{a_{1}} + \frac{1}{a_{2}}

Q. A train leaves station 'A' to station 'B'. The train travels straight without any halts between the stations. During the first and last

200

m of its journey, the train has uniform acceleration and retardation both equal to

1 {m s}^{- 1}

respectively. For the rest of the journey, the train maintains uniform speed Calculate the average speed of the train, given the distance between two stations is 4 km.
