Until a train is a safe distance from the station, it must travel at 5 m/s. once the train is on open track, it can speed up to 45 m/s. if it takes a train 8 seconds to reach 45 m/s, what is the acceleration of the train?

Explanation:

The acceleration of the train is given by:

where:

u = 5 m/s is the initial velocity of the train

v = 45 m/s is the final velocity of the train

t = 8 s is the time taken for the train to increase the velocity

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find

the temperature in kelvin of 2.0 dm3 of an ideal gas is doubled and its pressure is increased by a factor of four. what is the final volume of the gas
