2. Jack uses a pickup truck to drive to work. Because he was in a hurry this morning, he forgot to fill

up the tank and ran out of gas. If the truck weighs 1,632 kg and he is able to accelerate the car to

go 0.07 m/s2 by pushing it, how much net force is being exerted on the car?

Answer:

114.24N

Step-by-step explanation:

Net force exerted on the car is expressed using the formula;

Force = Mass * Acceleration

Given

Mass = 1,632kg

acceleration = 0.07m/s²

Get the force

Force = 1632 * 0.07

Force = 114.24N

Hence the net force exerted on the car is 114.24N
