Answer:
the product of mass and velocity
....in my syllabus
“a point representing the mean position of the matter in a body or system.”
I believe it is true . Somebody correct me if I’m wrong!
Solve for acceleration:
<em>a</em> = (21.4 m/s - 33.8 m/s) / (4.7 s)
<em>a</em> ≈ -2.6 m/s²
Solve for force:
<em>F</em> = (1400 kg) <em>a</em> ≈ -3700 N
The minus sign tells you the force points in the opposite direction of the car's motion. Its magnitude is always positive, so <em>F</em> = 3700 N.
