Question

If Javier has a car with a mass of 250,000 kg and it is acted upon with a force of 300 Newtons. What is the acceleration?

Answer 1

0.0012 meters per second squared

Answer 2

The acceleration is 0.0012 meters/seconds²

Explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to answer the question correctly:

Mass = 250,000 kg

Force = 300 Newtons

2. What is the acceleration?

Based on Newton's Second Law of Motion, let's recall that:

Force = Mass * Acceleration

Acceleration = Force/Mass

Replacing with the real values, we have:

Acceleration = 300/250,0000

Acceleration = 0.0012 meters/seconds² (we can't express acceleration using Newtons/kilograms as the unit).
