An object travels 8 m in the 1st second of travel, 8 m again during the 2nd second of travel, and 8 m again during the 3rd second. Its acceleration is therefore
A)0 m/s2.
B)5 m/s2.
C)8 m/s2.
D)10 m/s2.
E)more than 10 m/s2.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The object travels equal distances in equal intervals of time, indicating a constant velocity. Therefore, there is no change in velocity, which means the acceleration is 0 m/s^2.

An Object Travels 8 M in the 1st Second of Travel
