If the maximum acceleration that is tolerable for passengers in a subway train is 1.74 m/s2 and subway stations are located 930 m apart, what is the maximum speed a subway train can attain between stations?

Given that the subway stations are 930 m apart, the train have to be accerelated for half the distance and then decerelated for the rest of the distance.

Recall that the distance travelled by an object with an initial velocity, u, for a period of time, t, at an accereration, a, is given by


But, we assume that the train accelerates from rest, thus


The maximum speed is attained at half the center of the distance between subway stations (i.e. at distance = 465 m).

Thus, maximum speed = distance / time = 465 / 23.12 = 20.11 m/s.

Physical stimulation can not be used as you carnt ask 1/2 a person a it would be painful
