Answer:

The answer is 5 seconds;

Explanation:

a) We know that the speed(V) is 15 m/s and acc. (a) is 3 m/s^2

b) The formula for the acceleration is  a=[tex]\frac{V}{t}[/tex];

Using this formula we can define the next equation:

3 =  [tex]\frac{15}{t}[/tex] , where  t is the sought time. After solving the equation we get that t is 5;
