Question

A 6,000N is applied to a formula one car that weighs 500kg. What is the car's acceleration?

Answer 1

Answer:

12 m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

$a = \frac{f}{m}$

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question

f = 6000 N

m = 500 kg

We have

$a = \frac{6000}{500} = \frac{60}{5} = 12$

We have the final answer as

12 m/s²

Hope this helps you
