The question cannot be answered because a part of it is missing.
A toy car accelerates from ... WHAT ... at a constant rate ...
Acceleration is the time rate of change of velocity. If velocity is constant, then acceleration is zero. Note: "100 km per h for 10 seconds" is a constant speed, but not necessarily a constant velocity, since we're told nothing about the direction. If the car moves in a perfectly straight line during those 10 seconds, then its velocity is constant. If it makes a curve, then its velocity is not constant even though its speed is, and there is acceleration.
If the acceleration was constant (15 + 25) /2 = 20 (time does not figure into the averaging at all!)
The answer is very simple. The words "constant velocity" are the definition of zero acceleration.
it is 10 meters per second straight down
Constant velocity is a measure of distance traveled per unit of time at a uniform speed, such as miles per hour or feet per second. Constant acceleration is a measure of a continuing increase in velocity per unit of time, as when a car speeds up from 30 miles per hour to 40 miles per hour in 5 seconds, then from 40 miles per hour to 50 miles per hour during the next 5 seconds. It will then have had a constant acceleration of 10 miles per hour per 5 seconds.
No, the motion of the seconds hand of a watch is not an example of uniform velocity. The seconds hand moves in a circular motion at a constant speed, rather than moving in a straight line at a constant velocity. Uniform velocity refers to motion in a straight line with a constant speed.

You throw a ball straight up with a velocity of 40 meters per second. What is the ball's velocity after 3 seconds?
Initially be positive as she accelerates towards her terminal velocity, then decrease as she approaches terminal velocity, eventually reaching zero once she hits terminal velocity.
In the case of constant velocity (or speed), velocity = distance / time.
The answer is very simple. The words "constant velocity" are the definition of zero acceleration.
The acceleration of the car can be calculated using the formula: acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time. Converting the initial velocity of 0 km/hr to m/s and final velocity of 60 km/hr to m/s, and plugging in the values, we get the acceleration to be 2 m/s^2.
The velocity of the ball will be -30 m/s (downward) after 5 seconds due to gravity.
