To find the acceleration of the train, we can use the equation:

acceleration (a) = (final velocity (v) - initial velocity (u)) / time (t)

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s (train starts from rest)

Final velocity (v) = 25 m/s

Time (t) = 30 s

Using the formula, we can calculate the acceleration:

acceleration (a) = (25 m/s - 0 m/s) / 30 s

Simplifying:

acceleration (a) = 25 m/s / 30 s

acceleration (a) = 0.833 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the train is approximately 0.833 m/s².
