Solution

The acceleration of an object can be calculated using the formula:

a = (v_f - v_i) / t

where: a = acceleration v_f = final velocity v_i = initial velocity t = time

Given in the problem: v_f = 13.5 m/s v_i = 10.5 m/s t = 2.0 s

Substitute these values into the formula:

a = (13.5 m/s - 10.5 m/s) / 2.0 s a = 3.0 m/s / 2.0 s a = 1.5 m/s²

So, the acceleration of the object is 1.5 m/s².
