Answer:
<em>600N.</em>
Explanation:
From the question, we are to calculate the net force acting on the car.
According to Newton's second law of motion:
F = ma
m is the mass of the car
a is the acceleration = change in velocity/Time
a = v-u/t
F = m(v-u)/t
v is the final velocity = 30m/s
u is the initial velocity = 20m/s
t is the time = 5secs
m = 300kg
Get the net force:
Recall that: F = m(v-u)/t
F = 300(30-20)/5
F = 60(30-20)
F = 60(10)
<em>F = 600N</em>
<em>Hence the net force acting on the car is 600N.</em>

The equation that relates distance, velocities, acceleration, and time is,
d = V₀t + 0.5gt²
where d is distance,
V₀ is the initial velocity,
t is time, and
g is the acceleration due to gravity (equal to 9.8 m/s²)
(1) Dropped rock,
(3 x 10² m ) = 0(t) + 0.5(9.8 m/s²)(t²)
The value of t from this equation is 24.73 s
(2) Thrown rock with V₀ = 26 m/s
(3 x 10² m) = (26)(t) + 0.5(9.8 m/s²)(t²)
The value of t from the equation is 5.61 s
The difference between the tim,
difference = 24.73 s - 5.61 s
difference = 19.12 s
<em>ANSWER: 19.12 s</em>
