Question

A runner starts running and gradually increases her speed to 10 m/s in 5 seconds. The acceleration of the runner is______ m/s2.

hintHint:

acceleration = ∆velocity/∆time

The correct answer is: 2


    Acceleration is defined as change in velocity with change in time. As runner starts from 0 and reaches to 10 m/s in 5 seconds.
    The acceleration of the runner is 2 m/s2 .
