An object originally at rest is uniformly accelerated to a speed of 8.0 meters per second in 2.0 seconds. What is the acceleration of the object?

acceleration = v final - vinitial/time
A. <p>16 m/s 2</p>
B. <p>10. m/s2</p>
C. <p>4.0 m/s2</p>
D. <p>0.25 m/s2</p>

acceleration = (8.0 m/s - 0 m/s) / 2.0 s = 4.0 m/s^2

The correct answer is C. 4.0 m/s^2
