Solution

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

Acceleration = Change in Velocity / Time

In this case, the object is going from rest (initial velocity = 0 m/s) to 100 m/s in 20 seconds. So, the change in velocity is 100 m/s.

Substituting these values into the formula gives:

Acceleration = 100 m/s / 20 s = 5 m/s²

So, the object must accelerate at 5 m/s² to go from rest to 100 m/s in 20 seconds. Therefore, the answer is e. 5 m/s².
