Answer:

50m/s2

Step-by-step explanation:

Avwrage acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

Acceleration describes how quickly something is speeding up or decelerating (slowing down)

The mathematical formula is written as

Average acceleration= velocity/time

Velocity=100m/s

Time=2 seconds

Therefore, 100m/s ÷ 2s= 50m/s2
