  1. Find the distance that the train moves in the first 28 seconds.
  2. Calculate the total distance moved by the train during the 50 seconds.
  3. Hence calculate the average speed of the train.
  4. Find the displacement of the train from its initial position when it has been moving for 50 seconds.
  5. Hence calculate the average velocity of the train.
  6. Find the acceleration of the train in the first 18 seconds of its motion.
