Passes the point with speed 11.0 m/s

a) The average velocity?

b) The average acceleration t=20.0 s?

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.
a) We know that : the average acceleration defined as the displacement travelled divided by the time taken to make this displacement :
 
 
Where : 
  is the average acceleration of the car .
 is the the time the car took to to change its velocity .
  are the final velocity and the initial velocity of the car
 are the finial and the initial position of the car .
From Givens we know that :  
Plugging known information to get the velocity :
