Answer:

15m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 10m/s

Final velocity  = 40m/s

Time taken  = 2s

Unknown:

Average acceleration  = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time;

 Acceleration  = [tex]\frac{Final velocity - Initial velocity }{time}[/tex]  

  Acceleration = [tex]\frac{40 - 10}{2}[/tex]    = 15m/s²
