25. A 60 tonnes train unit is made up of a two 4-wheel bogie coaches. Each coach has 2 bogies. Each
coach is equipped with 4 DC motors. Each motor is geared to the driving axle through a single-
reduction gearing of 0.4 gear ratio. Each wheel and each motor has a mass of 500 kg and a
diameter of 1.0 meter. The Motors are required to accelerate and decelerate the train at 1.5
m/sec2. The distance from station to station is 2000 m, and the average speed is 20 m/sec.
Resistance to motion during acceleration is assumed 20 N/tonne, and 30 N/tonne during
constant speed. Assume track slope 4 %. System regenerative braking is arranged. The
accelerating mass of the system is: Q
