Given that the accelerations are equal in the two accelerating parts of the motion, find the value of $T$.
Find the total distance travelled by the car throughout the motion.
This 4-mark question has a full step-by-step worked solution and mark scheme. One marking point: “Equate the accelerations and write the equation $\frac{20-6}{50-T}=\frac{20}{5}$ or $20=6+\frac{20}{5}(50-T)$” …
