Question

A 2500-N net force acting on a 880-kg car accelerates it at a rate of ______ m/s/s

Answer 1

Answer:

a = 2.84 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that,

Net force, F = 2500 N

Mass of the car, m = 880 kg

We need to find the acceleration of the car. Net force is given by :

F = ma

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{2500\ N}{880\ m/s^2}\\\\a=2.84\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the car is 2.84 m/s².
