Answer:
<em>The average acceleration of the object is 0.5 cm/s^2</em>. Answer: A)
Explanation:
<u>Average Acceleration</u>
The average acceleration of a moving object is the rate at which the speed changed over time in a specific period. It can be calculated as follows:

Where vf is the final speed, vo is the initial speed and t is the time.
The speed-time shows the speed starts at 0 cm/s and ends at 4 cm/s over the 8 seconds period. The average acceleration is:

The average acceleration is 0.5 cm/s^2
A) Correct. The average acceleration is 0.5 cm/s^2
B) Incorrect. The average acceleration is 0.5 cm/s^2
C) Incorrect. The average acceleration is 0.5 cm/s^2
D) Incorrect. The average acceleration is 0.5 cm/s^2
