#a = 4 (m)/(s^2)#

Explanation:

Since acceleration is described as a change in velocity over change in time, then we can do the following

#color(white)(-----)color(magenta)(a = (v_(f)-v_(i))/(Deltat)#

We know the following

#Deltat = 2" s"#
#v_(i) = 0" m/s"#
#v_(f) = 8" m/s"#

Now, plugin

  • #color(magenta)(a = (v_(f)-v_(i))/(Deltat)#

  • #a = ((8 m/s)-(0 m/s))/(2" s")#

  • #color(blue)(a = 4 (m)/(s^2)#

#color(blue)("Answer" = a = 4 (m)/(s^2)#
