The force is applied to the accelerating object that has a constant mass. Option A is correct.

<h3>What does Newton's second law of motion state?</h3>

The force applied to the object is the product of its mass and acceleration.

F = ma

Where,

F - force

m- mass

a - acceleration

From the equation, the force and the acceleration are in a proportional relation. The mass is not changing as given in the question.

Therefore, the force is applied to the accelerating object that has a constant mass.

The reason why your body goes right and the car car goes left is because your body tries to stay where it was, which is on the right. Your upper body doesn't feel a force and because of that continues in the same direction. Your lower half is pulled out from under you by seat friction to the left, leaving you leaning to the right.

80 km per hour i believe. i’ll admit i’m american so we don’t use km lol, but the math should be the same. total distance = 120km, and total time = 1.5 hours. 120/1.5 = 80.
