    A light-rail train going from one station to the next on a straight section of track accelerates from rest at 1.20 m/s2 for 12.6 s . It then proceeds at constant speed for 1300 m before slowing down at 2.00 m/s2 until it stops at the station. What maximum velocity does the train achieve after leaving the station? What is the distance between the stations? How much time does it take the train to go between the stations?
