Fig. 2.1 shows a train Fig. 2.1
The total mass of the train and its passengers is 750000kg. The train is travelling at a speed of 84m/s.
The driver applies the brakes and the train takes 80s to slow down to a speed of 42m/s.
(a) Calculate the impulse applied to the train as it slows down,
impulse =
[3]
(b) Calculate the average resultant force applied to the train as it slows down,
force =
(2)
