A train travels from A to B, a distance of 20 000m, taking 1000s. The journey has three stages. In the first stage the train starts from rest at A and accelerates uniformly until its speed is Vms1. In the second stage the train travels at constant speed Vms-1 for 600 s. During the third stage of the journey the train decelerates uniformly, coming to rest at B. Sketch the velocity-time graph for the train's journey. Find the value of V.
