Answer:0.71m/s^2

Explanation:

But we have to convert 1minute 25seconds to seconds.

Since 60seconds=1minute 1minute 25seconds=85seconds

Acceleration=(final velocity-initial velocity)÷time

Acceleration=(0-60)÷85

Acceleration=-60/85

Acceleration=-0.71m/s^2

The minus sign indicate that the car is decelerating
