Answer:

3.75m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.

The formula for acceleration is:

acceleration = Δv/Δt

Where Δv is change in velocity and Δt is change in time.

As the initial velocity was 0 and the velocity is now 15m/s, the change in velocity is 15m/s.

The change in time is 4 seconds.

The acceleration is therefore 15/4 so 3.75m/s².
