Answer:

V = 20m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Acceleration = 4m/s²

Time = 10 secs

Initial velocity = 0m/s (since it's at rest).

To find the average velocity, we would use the first equation of motion;


V = U + at

Where;

V is the final velocity.

U is the initial velocity.

a is the acceleration.

t is the time measured in seconds.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

V = 0 + 4*10

V = 40m/s

To find the average velocity;

Average velocity = (U + V)/2

Average velocity = (0 + 40)/2

Average velocity = 40/2

Average velocity = 20m/s
