Question: SERPSE 1 0 4 . 5 . OP . 0 2 5 . MI . A train slows down as it rounds a sharp horizontal

SERPSE104.5.OP.025.MI.
A train slows down as it rounds a sharp horizontal turn, going from 92.0kmh to 44.0kmh in the 17.0s that it takes to round the bend. The radius of the curve is 170m. Compute the acceleration at the
moment the train speed reaches 44.0kmh. Assume the train continues to slow down at this time at the same rate.
