A train of mass 200,000 kg moves on a horizontal straight track. It passes through a point A with speed 28 m/s and later it passes through a point B. The power of the train’s engine at B is 1.2 times the power of the train’s engine at A. The driving force of the train’s engine at B is 0.96 times the driving force of the train’s engine at A.

(i) Show that the speed of the train at B is 35 m/s.

(ii) For the motion from A to B, find the work done by the train’s engine given that the work done against the resistance to the train’s motion is 2.3 × 106 J.
