Accepted Answer
Explanation:It is given that, Initial velocity of the truck, u = 25 m/sFinal speed of the truck, v = 40 m/sTime taken, t = 3 sWe need to find the acceleration of the truck. It can be calculated using formula as :[tex]a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}[/tex] [tex]a=\dfrac{40-25}{3}[/tex] [tex]a=5\ m/s^2[/tex] So, the acceleration of the truck is 5 meter per second square. Hence, this is the required solution.
Suggested Answer
V=Vo+at (velocity=initial velocity plus acceleration multiplied by time)40m/s=25m/s+a(3s)-25 -2515m/s=a(3s) divide by 3s on both sides5m/s^2=a
