Answer:

10m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity = 0m/s

Final velocity = 100m/s

Time taken = 10s

Unknown:

Acceleration = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

A = $\frac{v - u}{t}$

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

t = time taken

So, insert the parameters and solve;

A = $\frac{100 - 0}{10}$ = 10m/s²
