Answer:


3 m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you are asking for the acceleration of the ball, not the velocity (in fact, the velocity is already given).

The acceleration is:


a=(v-u)/(t)

where in this case we have:

v = 24 m/s is the final velocity

u = 0 is the initial velocity

t = 8 s is the time interval for the velocity to change

Solving the equation,


a=(24-0)/(8)=3 m/s^2
