Answer:
1.5 m/s²
Explanation:
Applying,
a = (v-u)/t …………………. Equation 1
Where a = acceleration of the particle, v = final velocity of the particle, u = Initial velocity of the particle, t = time.
From the question,
Given: u = 0 m/s (From rest), v = 15 m/s, t = 10 seconds
Substitute these values into equation 1
a = (15-0)/10
a = 15/10
a = 1.5 m/s²
