Answer:

80

Explanation:

The formula to calculate speed is s=d/t. If the distance is 2,000 m/s and the time is 25 seconds, you plug in the numbers into the formula for speed. 2,000/25=80

The satellite's acceleration (speed) is 80.

(I'm not exactly sure what the unit should be for the answer 80, but...) I hope this helps and have a great day!! :3
