MCQ
A train moves from rest with a uniform acceleration $a$ . Attaining a maximum speed $v$ it  starts moving with uniform retardation $a$ . Assuming $s$ = total distance covered in the  unidirectional motion of the train, its total time of journey and maximum speed are  (respectively).
  • A
    $\sqrt {\frac{s}{a}},\sqrt {as}$
  • $2 \sqrt {\frac{s}{a}},\sqrt {as}$
  • C
