Answer:

0 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity over change in time.

Velocity is the change in position over change in time.

During the first second, the velocity is 8 m/s.

During the second second, the velocity is 8 m/s.

During the third second, the velocity is 8 m/s.

The velocity stays constant at 8 m/s, so the object is not accelerating.
