Answer:

1 m/s

Explanation:

5m/s change in velocity, divided by 5 seconds= 1 meter/second/second

change in velocity/change in time

AL2006

Acceleration = (change in velocity) / (time for the change)

that's = (change in speed and its direction) / (time for the change)

Change in velocity = (ending velocity) - (starting velocity)

Change in velocity = (20 m/s west) - (15 m/s west)

Change in velocity = 5 m/s west

Acceleration = (5 m/s west) / (5 seconds)

Acceleration = 1 m/s west
