Braniac · Answer 1

Answer: The acceleration of the object is 32m/s^2

Explanation: Acceleration is change in velocity per unit time. The initial velocity is 240m/s and the final velocity is 560m/s. The formula for the system is a = vf-vi/t

a = 32m/s^2

Julianne Wolfe · Answer 2

Answer: 32m/s²

Explanation:

U = 240m/s

V = 560m/s

t = 10s

Acceleration = change in velocity / time

a = V - U / t

a = 560 - 240 / 10

a = 320 / 10

a = 32m/s²
