What is the acceleration of an object if it goes from a velocity of + 25 m/s to rest in 5.0 s?

A. - 5 m/s^2

B. + 5 m/s^2

C. - 25 m/s^2

D. + 25 m/s^2

In this question, there are several information's that can be used to determine the right answer. Let us first check all the information's that have been provided in the question.

Initial velocity = 25 m/s

Final velocity = 0 m/s

Initial time = 0 second

Final time = 5 second

Now we can write an equation to determine the acceleration.

Acceleration of the object = (Final velocity - Initial velocity) / (Final time - Initial time)

= (0 - 25) / (5 - 0)

= - 25/5

= - 5 m/s^2

So we find the acceleration of the object as - 5m/s^2. the correct option among the given options in the question is option "A".
