Okay so, the turtle is accelerating at a rate of 3 m/s², since the turtle was at a stop we'll assume it's initial speed was 0 m/s. So what we'll do is take the time (8 seconds) and multiply it by the rate of acceleration (3 m/s²), which will give us a final speed of 24 m/s. Therefore, the turtle has a final velocity of 24 m/s.
