Answer:

Average acceleration,
a=2.77\ m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity, u = 0 km/h

Final velocity, v = 100 km/h = 27.77 m/s

Time, t = 10 s

We need to find the average acceleration of the vehicle. It is given by the change in velocity divided by time. Som,


a=(v-u)/(t)\\\\a=(27.77-0)/(10)\\\\a=2.77\ m/s^2

So, its average acceleration is
2.77\ m/s^2.
