Question

My car engine can generate 3000 Newtons of force and the car masses 1500 kg. How fast can the sports car accelerate?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The sports Car can accelerate at 2 m/s².

Explanation:

Force:

Force is the push or pull on an object with mass that causes it to change velocity or to accelerate.

Force represents as a vector, which means it has both magnitude and direction.

Given:

Mass of car = 1500 kg

Force           = 3000 Newtons

To Find:

Acceleration, = ?

Solution:

Formula:

$Force = Mass\times Acceleration\\F= ma\\3000 = 1500\times Acceleration\\Acceleration = \frac{3000}{1500} \\Acceleration = 2\ m/s^{2}$

Therefore, the sports Car can accelerate at 2 m/s².
