Answer:


vf=vi+at\\vf=15\\vi=0\\a=?\\t=5\\\\15=0+a5\\a=(15)/(5) \\a=3

Therefore the acceleration is 3m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We will be using the kinematics big five equations. Specifically, the one without displacement (d).

Write out your values and substitute the, into the equation.

Solve for a.

Note. Starts from stop so vi=0
