Final answer:

The particle's acceleration for the time interval between 0 and 3 seconds varies from 0 to 5 m/s².

The correct answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given time interval of 0 to 3 seconds, the particle's acceleration changes from 0 to 5 m/s². This means that it starts with no acceleration (0 m/s²) and gradually accelerates to a constant acceleration of 5 m/s².

For example, if we consider a car accelerating from rest to a constant speed of 60 mph in 3 seconds, the car's acceleration would vary from 0 to a constant value during this time interval.

The correct answer is C) Acceleration varies from 0 to 5 m/s².
