Question

The engine in the car from question 1 uses a force of 1200 N to cause the car to accelerate at 3.5 m/s2. What is the car's mass?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Mass of car's engine = 342.85 kg (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given values:

Force applied by car = 1,200 N

Acceleration of car' engine = 3.5 m/s²

Find:

Mass of car's engine

Computation:

⇒ Mass = Force / Acceleration

⇒ Mass of car's engine = Force applied by car / Acceleration of car

⇒ Mass of car's engine = 1,200 / 3.5

⇒ Mass of car's engine = 342.85 kg (Approx.)
