Question

Part A

The initial velocity of a car moving along a straight path was 0 meters/second. After 10 seconds, it reached a velocity of 25 meters/second.
Calculate the car's average acceleration during this time period.

Answer 1

2.5 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula, v = u + at ( v = Final velocity; u = Initial velocity; t = Time; a = Acceleration)

25 = 0 + 10a

a = 25/10 = 2.5 m/s²
