The acceleration is 2 mph/min
Explanation:
The acceleration of an object is the rate of change of velocity. It is defined as follows:
[tex]a=\frac{v-u}{t}[/tex]
where
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken for the velocity to change from u to v
For the car in this problem, we have (taking North as positive direction):
u = 25 mph
v = 35 mph
t = 5 min
Substituting into the equation, we find the acceleration:
[tex]a=\frac{35 mph-25mph}{5min}=2 mph/min[/tex]
