Answer:

45.09 m/s^2

Explanation:

from the question we were given the following parameters

mass = 931.9 kg

initial velocity (V1) = 0 m/s ( since it started from rest )

final velocity (V2) = 25.7 m/s

time (t) = 0.57 s

The average acceleration is given by:

a = ( V2 - V1 ) / t

therefore

a = (25.7 - 0) / 0.57 = 45.09 m/s^2
