Answer:

A) 7.0 m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration is found by using the formula:

  • a = Δv/Δt

This means the change in time divided by the time interval will give us the car's acceleration.

Since the car starts from rest, its initial velocity is 0 m/s. Its final velocity is 35 m/s. The time interval for the car to go from 0 to 35 m/s is 5.0 seconds.

  • a = (v - v₀)/t

Substitute the final and initial velocity into the formula.

  • a = (35 - 0)/5
  • a = 35/5
  • a = 7

The acceleration of the car is A) 7.0 m/s².
