A vacuum-propelled capsule for a high-speed tube transportation system of the future is being designed for operation

Question:

A vacuum-propelled capsule for a high-speed tube transportation system of the future is being designed for operation between two stations A and B, which are 10 km apart. If the acceleration and deceleration are to have a limiting magnitude of 0.6g and if velocities are to be limited to 400 km/h, determine the minimum time t for the capsule to make the 10-km trip.
