Vthe next 0.71 hr. What is the average speed of the train?
When an object moves along a straight line with uniform acceleration, it is possible to relate its
velocity, acceleration during motion and the distance covered by it in a certan time interval by
a set of equations known as the equations of motion. There are three such equations. These are

where u is the initial
velocity of the object which moves with uniform acceleration a for time t,
i s the final velocity. and s is the distance travelled by the object in time t. Eq. (1) describes
the velocity-time relation and Eq. (2) represents the position-time relation. Eq. (3), which

represents the relation between the position and the velocity, can be obtained from Eqs. (1) and
(2) byeliminating t. These three equations can be derived by graphicalmethod.
