Suvat
we have s, u, v and we want a
the suvat equation with these values in is: v^2 = u^2 - 2as
so a = (-v^2 + u^2)/-2s
plug numbers in
a = (-85^2 + 0^2)/-2*36 = 7225/72 = 100.3... ms^-2
Half mass car because it's traveling faster
Answer:
0.5m/s^2
Explanation:
We can use the formula [ F = ma ] but solve for "a" since that is what we are looking for.
F = ma
F/m = a
We know the net force and mass so substitute those values and simplify.
500/1000 = 0.5m/s^2
Best of Luck!
