Problem

A train moves as follows: (i) travels with constant velocity 20 m/s20\,\text{m/s} for 15 s15\,\text{s}, (ii) then slows down uniformly to 10 m/s10\,\text{m/s} in the next 5 s5\,\text{s}, (iii) finally accelerates uniformly to 25 m/s25\,\text{m/s} in the next 10 s10\,\text{s}. Calculate the total displacement of the train during the entire 30 s30\,\text{s}. a) 600 m600\,\text{m} b) 500 m500\,\text{m} c) 550 m550\,\text{m} d) 575 m575\,\text{m}
