    a) a = - 24 m / s², b) Δx = 1180 m

    Explanation:

    a) This is a one-dimensional kinematics exercise, let's use the equation

    x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ a t²

    in this case give us the initial velocity v₀ = 2 m / s and the location (x = - 10m) for t = 1 s, find us the acceleration

    a = (x-x₀ - v₀ t) 2 / t²

    let's calculate

    a = (-10 - 0 - 2 1) 2/1²

    a = - 24 m / s²

    The sign of acceleration indicates that it is heading to the left; this acceleration is constant throughout the movement

    therefore the acceleration for t = 4 s is also a = 24 m / s²

    b) The displacement between t = 0 and t = 10 s

    for t = 0 it is at x = xo

    for t = 10 x = xo + 2 10 - ½ 24 10²

    x = xo + 20 - 1200

    x (10) = xo - 1180

    in displacement is

    Δx = x (0) - x (10)

    Δx = 1180 m
