A train stopping at 2 stations 4 km apart takes 4 min on the journey from one of the station to the other.Assuming that it first accelerates with uni.acceleration x and then that of uniform retardation y, prove that (1/x)+(1/y)=2
Dear Chilukuri
let t1 is time of acceleration and s1 is distance covered in this time .v is the velocity after time t
let t2 is time of retardation and s2 is distance covered in this time .
v2=02-2xs1
s1=v2/2x..............1
v=0+xt1
v/x=t1 ..................2
and 0=v-yt2
t2=v/y .................3
02=v2-2ys2
s2=v2/2y..............4
add 2 and 3
1/x +1/y =(t1+t2)/v
=4/v..........5
add 1 and 4
s1+s2 =v2/2(1/x +1/y)
4=v2/2(1/x +1/y)
or (1/x +1/y) =8/v2
put value of v from equation 5
1/x +1/y =2
