Question
A train is travelling on a curved path of radius $1000\text{ m}$ at a speed of $90\text{ km/hr}$. The brakes are suddenly applied causing the train to slow down at a constant rate. After 6 seconds, the speed has been reduced to $72\text{ km/hr}$. Determine the magnitude and direction of acceleration of a train immediately after the brakes have been applied.
