Solve the following problem.
A metro train runs from station A to B to C. It takes 4 minutes in travelling from station A to station B. The train halts at station B for 20 s. Then it starts at station B and reaches station C in next 3 minutes. At the start, the train accelerates for 10 sec to reach a constant speed of 72 km/hr. The train moving at the constant speed is brought to rest in 10 sec. At the next station.
(i) Plot the velocity- time graph for the train travelling from station A to B to C.
(ii) Calculate the distance between the stations A, B and C.
