The train leaves \(A\), accelerating uniformly from rest for 400 m until reaching a speed of \(32 \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\). The train then travels at this steady speed for \(T\) seconds before decelerating uniformly at \(1.6 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 2 }\), coming to rest at \(B\). Find the total time for the journey.
