Question

A race car exerts 18,344 N while the car travels at an acceleration of 92.54 m/s2. What is the mass of the car? (Use the formula m=F/a)

Answer 1

$\huge\blue{\tt Given :-}$

• A race car exerts 18,344 N while the car travels at an acceleration of 92.54 m/s²

$\huge\orange{\tt To \: Find :-}$

• Mass of the car

$\huge\green{\tt Solution :-}$

We have,

• Force(f) = 18344 N
• Acceleration(a) = 92.54 m/s²

We know that,

$\boxed{\tt m = \frac{f}{a}}$

Where,

• m = Mass
• f = Force
• a = Acceleration

Substituting the values we get,

$:\implies\tt m = \dfrac{\cancel{18344}}{\cancel{92.54}}$

$:\implies\tt m ≈ 198.23 \: kg$

Therefore, mass of the car is 198.23 kg

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is 198.23 kg

Explanation:

To find the mass of an object given it's mass and acceleration we use the formula

$m = \frac{f}{a}$

where

m is the mass

F is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question

a = 92.54 m/s²

F = 18,344 N

We have

$m = \frac{18344}{92.54} \\ = 198.2277933...$

We have the final answer as

198.23 kg

Hope this helps you
