    We are asked to solve for the final velocity (Vf) such that we are given with the acceleration value, initial velocity and duration or time. To solve this, we need the formula below:

    Vf = Vi + at where "Vf" represents the final velocity, "Vi" represents the initial velocity, "a" represents the acceleration and "t" represents the time

    The solution is shown below:

    Vf = Vi + at, substitute the values such as:

    Vf = 20m/s + (1.5m/s²) * (4s), peform multiplication

    Vf = 20 + 6, perform addition of 20 and 6

    Vf = 26 meter / second

    The answer is 26 meters/second for the final velocity.
