A velocity-time graph is shown below: A graph titled velocity versus time. The horizontal axis is labeled time in seconds with increments of 2 from 0 to 10. The vertical axis is labeled velocity in meters per second with increments of 5 from 0 to 25. A line segment labeled A is drawn through the points 0 comma 0, 1 comma 4, 2 comma 8, 3 comma 12, 4 comma 16, and 5 comma 20. A line segment labeled B is drawn through the points 5 comma 20, 6 comma 20, 7 comma 20, 8 comma 20, 9 comma 20, and 10 comma 20. What is the average acceleration of the object represented in the graph above over the 10 seconds? 0 m/s2 2 m/s2 4 m/s2 6 m/s2

The figure gives the acceleration versus velocity for a particle moving along an axis. The x-axis scale is set by 16.0 m/s^2. At t = 2.0, the particle's velocity is 11.0 m/s. What is its acceleration (m/s^2)?
