Answer:
t = 6 minutes
Explanation:
Given that,
Force,[tex]F=6.8\times 10^5\ N[/tex]
Initial speed of the train, u = 0
Final speed of the train, v = 80 km/h = 22.22 m/s
The mass of the train, [tex]m=1.1\times 10^7\ kg[/tex]
We need to find the time taken by the train to come to rest. We know that,
F = ma
[tex]F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{F}\\\\t=\dfrac{1.1\times10^7\times (22.22-0)}{6.8\times 10^5}\\\\t=359.44\ s[/tex]
or
t = 6 minutes (approx)
So, the required time is equal to 6 minutes.
