**Braking from Point A to 10 m/s**
To calculate the time taken by the train to travel from point A to B, we need to break down the journey into different segments.
First, let's calculate the time taken by the train to slow down from its initial speed of 30 m/s to 10 m/s. We know that the train has a constant retardation of 3 m/s^2 during this phase.
Using the equation of motion v^2 = u^2 + 2as, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and s is the distance, we can find the distance traveled during this deceleration.
v^2 = u^2 + 2as
(10)^2 = (30)^2 + 2(-3)s
100 = 900 - 6s
6s = 800
s = 800/6
s = 133.33 m
So, the train travels a distance of 133.33 meters while slowing down from 30 m/s to 10 m/s.
The time taken to cover this distance can be calculated using the equation of motion v = u + at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time.
v = u + at
10 = 30 + (-3)t
-3t = -20
t = 20/3
t ≈ 6.67 seconds
**Traveling at 10 m/s**
After reaching a speed of 10 m/s, the train travels at this constant speed for a certain distance. Let's denote this distance as d1.
We know that the time taken to travel at a constant speed is given by the formula t = d/v, where d is the distance and v is the velocity.
t = d/v
t = d1/10
**Accelerating from 10 m/s to 30 m/s**
Next, the train accelerates uniformly from 10 m/s to 30 m/s. Let's denote the acceleration during this phase as a1. We are given that the train accelerates at X m/s^2.
Using the equation of motion v^2 = u^2 + 2as, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and s is the distance, we can find the distance traveled during this acceleration.
v^2 = u^2 + 2as
(30)^2 = (10)^2 + 2(a1)s
900 = 100 + 2(a1)s
2(a1)s = 800
s = 400/a1
The time taken to cover this distance can be calculated using the equation of motion v = u + at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time.
v = u + at
30 = 10 + a1t
a1t = 20
t = 20/a1
**Total Time Taken**
The total time taken by the train to travel from point A to B can be calculated by adding the time taken for each segment.
Total time = time taken to slow down + time taken to travel at a constant speed + time taken to accelerate
Total time = 6.67 + d1/10 +
