Answer:

Force, F = 5400 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the car, m = 900 kg

Acceleration of the car,
a=6\ m/s^2

Let F is the force taken by the car to accelerate it. The amount of force acting on the car can be calculated using second equation of motion as :


F=m* a


F=900\ kg* 6\ m/s^2

F = 5400 N

So, the force required to accelerate the car is 5400 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
