Answer:

The needed force is 35,000 N.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the second Newton's law, we know that:

F = M*a

Force equals mass times acceleration.

If we know that the mass of the car is 1750kg, then M = 1750kg, and the acceleration is 20 m/s^2, then a = 20m/s^2

We can replace these values in the original equation to find the value of F.

F = 1750kg*20 m/s^2 = 35,000 N
