If a car is moving at a constant velocity of 10 m/s, what is its acceleration?

10 m/s
10 m/s^2
0 m/s^2
1 m/s^2

Answer:

If a car is moving at a constant velocity of 10 m/s, there will be no change in the velocity per time.

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity

Acceleration=(Final velocity-Initial velocity)/Time

Acceleration=(10m/s-10m/s)/Time= 0 m/s²

0 m/s² is the right answer.
