The acceleration is -3.1 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is the rate of change in velocity of the object.

Mathematically, it is given by

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

t is the time taken for the velocity to change from u to v

For the car in this problem, we have:

u = +20 m/s

v = 0 (because the car comes to a stop)

t = 6.5 s (time taken)

Therefore, the acceleration is

a=\frac{0-(+20)}{6.5}=-3.1 m/s^2

Where the negative sign means that the direction of the acceleration is opposite to the direction of the initial velocity.
