Question

A 0.40 kg toy car moves at constant acceleration of 2.3 m/s2. determine the net applied force that is responsible for that acceleration.

Answer 1

Net force = ma = 0.4x2.3 =0.92N.

Answer 2

Answer:

F = 0.92 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the toy car, m = 0.4 kg

Acceleration of the car, $a=2.3\ m/s^2$

Let F is the net force applied to the to the toy car. It is equal to the product of mass and acceleration. Its formula is given by :

$F=m\times a$

$F=0.4\ kg\times 2.3\ m/s^2$

F = 0.92 N

So, the net applied force that is responsible for that acceleration is 0.92 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
