Given:

The initial velocity of the object is


v_i=\text{ 0 m/s}

The acceleration is a = 5m/s^2

The time duration is t = 15 s

To find the final velocity of the object.

Step-by-step explanation:

The final velocity of the object will be


\begin{gathered} v_f=v_i+at \\ =0+5*15 \\ =75\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}
