    0.75 m/s^2.

    Explanation:

    Given:

    vi = 1.2 m/s

    vf = 3.6 m/s

    t = 3.2 s

    Using the equation of motion:

    vf = vi + at

    3.6 - 1.2 = 3.2a

    a = 2.4/3.2

    = 0.75 m/s^2.

    The acceleration is

    Explanation:

    Vo=Initial velocity

    V = Final velocity

    a = acceleration

    t = time

    V = Vo + a*t.

    Vo = 1.2 m/s, V = 3.6 m/s, t = 3.2 s, a = ?.

    3.6=1.2 + a x 3.2, so

    3.6-1.2=3.2a

    2.4=3.2a

    a = 2.4/3.2

    =0.75 m/s2
