A point mass is moving with a velocity \(v\) in the positive \({x\text-}\)direction. The velocity \(v\) (in m/s) is described by the equation \(v=5t+10t^2,\) where \(t\) is in seconds. The acceleration of the point mass at \(t=2\) s is:
1. zero 2. \(10~\text{m/s}^2\)
3. \(12~\text{m/s}^2\) 4. \(45~\text{m/s}^2\)
