b. -1.5 m/s²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 15m/s

Time = 10 seconds.

Since the car came to rest, final velocity = 0m/s

To find acceleration;

In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of final speed from the initial speed all over time.

Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

Where,

a is acceleration measured in

v and u is initial and final speed respectively, measured in

t is time measured in seconds.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Acceleration = -1.5 m/s²

here we know that ball will drop down by total distance 3.2 m

so here we know that

now using kinematics

now in the same time it will cover horizontal distance of 0.75 m

so speed of the ball will be
