Magnitude of acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change) .

Change in speed = (end speed) - (start speed)
                            =        (2 m/a)  -  (8 m/a)  =  -6 m/a .

Time for the change = (end time) - (start time)
                                 =   (13 sec)  -  (10 sec)  =  3 sec .

Magnitude of acceleration =  (-6 m/a) / (3 sec)

                                          =       -2 m/a per second .
 
(That's the best I can do with the ambiguous units.
What unit of speed is 'm/a' ?  Is that "miles per afternoon" ?)

Give an example of a collision in real life. Use the law of conservation of energy to describe the transfer of momentum. Be sure
ozzi

Explanation :

Using the law of conservation of energy  

When two cars collide with each other then the momentum is same before collision and after collision but energy is changed after collision in form of heat and sound.

We know this collision is inelastic collision.

In Inelastic collision, when two objects collide with each other then the momentum is conserved but kinetic energy is not conserved.
