Answer : The car’s acceleration is, [tex]2m/s^2[/tex]
Solution :
Acceleration : It is defined as the change in the velocity of an object with respect to the time.
Formula used :
[tex]a=\frac{v_{final}-v_{initial}}{t}[/tex]
where,
a = acceleration of car = ?
[tex]v_{final}[/tex] = final velocity of car = 40 m/s
[tex]v_{initial}[/tex] = initial velocity of car = 10 m/s
t = time taken = 15 s
Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the acceleration of car.
[tex]a=\frac{40m/s-10m/s}{15s}=2m/s^2[/tex]
Therefore, the acceleration of car is, [tex]2m/s^2[/tex]
