    Answer:1.097 m/s^2

    Explanation:

    a = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time

    = (54.8-12) / 39

    =1.097 m/s^2

    -1.09m/sec^2

    Explanation:

    Acceleration = (Vf-Vi) / Time

    =12-54.8

    = - 42.8

    = - 42.8/39

    =-1.09

    -ve sign is due to recoil of train

    as it suddenly hits brakes.
