Answer: 2.43 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial velocity is
u=15.2\ m/s

Final velocity
v=23\ m/s

Average acceleration is
a_(avg)=3.2\ m/s

Average acceleration is change in velocity in the given amount of time


\therefore a_(avg)=(v-u)/(t)\\\\\Rightarrow 3.2=(23-15.2)/(t)\\\\\Rightarrow t=(7.8)/(3.2)\\\\\Rightarrow t=2.43\ s

Thus, 2.43 s is required to acquire that average acceleration with 23 m/s velocity .
