A train starting from rest moves with a uniform acceleration of $0.2\ m/s^2$ for $5\ minutes$. Calculate the speed acquired.


Here initial velocity $u=0$

Acceleration $a=0.2\ m/s^2$

Time $t=5\ minutes=5\times60=300\ sec.$

Let $v$ be the final velocity.

On using the equation of motion:  $v=u+at$

Or $v=0+0.2\times300$

Or $v=60\ m/s$
