#v_f=160" "m/s#

Explanation:

enter image source here

#tan alpha="acceleration"#

#tan alpha=50 " "m/s^2#

#v_i="initial velocity"#

#v_f="final velocity"#

#"use defination of acceleration"#

#a:"acceleration"#

#a=(v_f-v_i)/(Delta t)=tan alpha#

#50=(v_f-10)/3#

#150=v_f-10#

#v_f=150+10#

#v_f=160" "m/s#
