an object is moving at a velocity of 23 m/s. it accelerates to a velocity of 85 m/s over a time of 8.5 s. what acceleration did it experience?

|Acceleration| = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

|Acceleration| = (85 m/s - 23 m/s) / (8.5 sec) =

                           (62 m/s)  /  (8.5 sec)  =

                             (62 / 8.5)  (m / sec²)  =  7.294 m/s²  (rounded)
