Explanation / Answer

From the given question

time of prey(t)=3.70 s

speed of prey(v)=7.5 m/s

distance travelled by prey(s)= 3.7 * 7.5=27.75 m

initial velocity of chetaah(u)=0 m/s

distance covered by chetah(s)= 27.75 m

time taken by chetaah(t)=3.7 s

s= ut + (1/2)at2

27.75=0 + (1/2)a(3.72)

a=(27.75)*(2)/(3.72)

a=4.05 m/s2

Hence acceleration of chetaah is 4.05 m/s2
