Train B starts from Station 1, in accelerating motion and then decelerating motion and finally reaches Station 2. Time taken by B is twice the time taken by A. Determine the maximum speed attained by B. The V-t diagram representing the movement of the trains is shown below. VA P O Train A Train B MR S NT tarrow_forward
