Answer:
The magnitude of acceleration is 2m/s² .
Explanation:
First, you have to find the velocity as it starts to travel 200m in 10s. The formula of velocity is V = Distance/Time, then you have to substitute the values into the formula :
[tex]v = d \div t[/tex]
[tex]let \: d = 200 \\ let \: t = 10[/tex]
[tex]v = 200 \div 10[/tex]
[tex]v = 20m/s[/tex]
Next, you have to substitute the values into the acceleration formula, a = (v-u)/t where v represents final velocity, u is initial velocity and t is time taken :
[tex]a = \frac{v - u}{t} [/tex]
[tex]let \: v = 20 \\ let \: u = 0 \\ let \: t = 10[/tex]
[tex]a = \frac{20 - 0}{10} [/tex]
[tex]a = \frac{20}{10} [/tex]
[tex]a = 2m/ {s}^{2} [/tex]
