Physics Question on speed and velocity

A particle is moving in a straight line such that its velocity is increasing at 5 ms–1 per meter. The acceleration of the particle is _______ms–2 at a point where its velocity is 20 ms–1.

Answer

dvds=51/m\frac{dv}{ds}=5^{-1}/m
a=v dvds\frac{dv}{ds}
=20×5=100 m/sec2
