Answer:

The answer is 4.29 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken acting on it can be found by using the formula


acceleration = (velocity)/(time) \\

From the question

velocity = 30 m/s

time = 7 s

We have


acceleration = (30)/(7) \\ = 4.285714...

We have the final answer as

4.29 m/s²

Hope this helps you
