Answer: A: Acceleration

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • A 2,500 kg car moves south at 15 m/s2

15 m/s2 is the acceleration of the car, since the international unit of acceleration is meter per second squared (m/s2)

Acceleration is the change of velocity during time of an object.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
