Step 1
Given that,
a)
In the first case
The velocity of the car is constant and it is
b)
In the first case
After time
At the distance
where L is the length of the track
The velocity of the car is
Where the negative sign indicates that the direction is left and the positive sign indicates that the direction is right.
To find the average acceleration of both cases.
