Answer:

The average acceleration is 0.6 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Velocity (m/s) = 5, 10, 15 and 20

Time (sec) = 5, 10, 15 and 20

We know that,

The velocity and time graph shows the acceleration.

We need to calculate the average acceleration

Using formula of average acceleration


a=(v_(f)-v_(i))/(t)

Where,
v_(f) = final velocity


v_(i) = initial velocity

a = acceleration

t = time

Put the value into the formula


a=(15-5)/(15)


a=0.6\ m/s^2

Hence, The average acceleration is 0.6 m/s²
