Car B and E are speeding up, while car C is slowing down.

Step-by-step explanation:

Acceleration (a) is the rate of change of velocity with time.It is calculated by dividing the change in velocity (Δv) with the time taken for the change to occur.In this question , the time is 10 sec in all cases.You divide the velocity in km/h by 3.6 to convert to m/s

In Car A

Δv=8.33-8.33=0m/s

t=10s

a=0 m/s² ⇒car is moving with same speed and in the same direction

Car B

Δv=5.55-0=5.55

t=10

a=5.55/10 =0.555 m/s² ⇒car is speeding up

Car C

Δv = 0-8.33= -8.33 m/s

t= 10

a= -8.33/10 = -0.833 m/s² ⇒car is slowing down

Car D

Δv= 0-0 =0

t=10s

a=0/10 =0 m/s² ⇒car is at rest

Car E

Δv = 8.33-5.55=2.78

t=10

a=2.78/10 = 0.278 m/s²⇒car is speeding up
