To solve the problem, we need to find the acceleration and the stopping distance of the train. Let's break it down step by step. ### Step 1: Identify Given Data - Initial velocity (u) = 30 m/s - Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s (since the train stops) - Time (t) = 44 s ### Step 2: Calculate Acceleration ...
