Answer:

A.
0.5 m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The average acceleration is equal to the ratio between the change in velocity and the time elapsed:


a=(\Delta v)/(\Delta t)

The change in velocity between t=0 s and t=10 s is the change on the vertical axis:


\Delta v = 5 -0 = 5 m/s

Whule the time interval is


\Delta t = 10 s

So the average acceleration is


a=(5 m/s)/(10 s)=0.5 m/s^2
