a.

Describe the motion of the train between 40 s and 100 s.

[1]
b.

Calculate the acceleration of the train in the first 40 s.

[2]
c.

Explain how the graph shows that the deceleration of the train between 100 s and 125 s is greater than its acceleration in the first 40 s.

[2]
d.

Determine the distance travelled by the train between 40 s and 100 s.

[2]
e.

Determine the total distance travelled by the train between the two stations.
