To calculate the acceleration of the car, we can use the formula for acceleration:

acceleration (a) = change in velocity (Δv) / time taken (Δt)

Given that the car moves with a speed of 10 m/s in 5 seconds, we can determine the change in velocity:

Δv = final velocity - initial velocity Δv = 10 m/s - 0 m/s Δv = 10 m/s

Now, we can calculate the acceleration:

acceleration (a) = Δv / Δt acceleration (a) = 10 m/s / 5 s acceleration (a) = 2 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the car is 2 m/s².
