Answer:
a) The magnitude of the force is 968 N
b) For a constant speed of 30 m/s, the magnitude of the force is 1,037 N
Explanation:
<em>NOTE: The question b) will be changed in other to give a meaningful answer, because it is the same speed as the original (the gallons would be 1.9, as in the original).</em>
Information given:
d = 106 km = 106,000 m
v1 = 28 m/s
G = 1.9 gal
η = 0.3
Eff = 1.2 x 10^8 J/gal
a) We can express the energy used as the work done. This work has the following expression:

Then, we can derive the magnitude of the force as:

b) We will calculate the force for a speed of 30 m/s.
If the force is proportional to the speed, we have:

Answer:
from
force =mass x acceleration
mass = force/acceleration
m = f/a
m = 7.5/15
m=0.5kg
Mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy

Yes, acceleration only tells you how velocity is changing. It doesn't say anything about what velocity is at any given time.
For example, if you set your car to cruise control on the highway going 80 mph. That is a constant high velocity, yet the car has 0 acceleration.
The opposite is also true. After a red light turns green, you put foot on the gas to accelerate. However, your velocity is initially low even though it has high acceleration.
