Question

a car with a mass of 1.50x10^3 kg. If force acting on the car is 6.75x10^3 N to the east, what is the car's acceleration.

Answer 1

4.5 ms⁻²

Step-by-step explanation:

By Newton's 2nd law,

The rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the unbalance force applied on the object,

By that you can get the equation,

F = ma ⇒ a = F/m

where terms are in usual meaning

a = 6.75x10^3/1.5x10^3= 4.5 ms⁻²
