Question

A Train Accelerates from rest at a constant rate α for sometime and then it retards to rest at a constant rate β. If te total distance covered by the particle is x, then what is the maximum velocity of the train ?

Joshi sir comment

for first part of motion  

v2 = 2αx1   (1)

similarly for second part of motion 

v2= 2βx2     (2)

now by given conditions 

x = x1 + x2

so x = v2/2α + v2/2β

so x = v2/2[1/α + 1/β]

now solve

 

Read 2 Solution.

velocity =  αβ/ (α+β) t    and x = { 1/2 *  αβ/ (α+β ) t2}  from this eqn of x find value of t and then put in the eqn of velocity to get the ans
