Question

Jennifer works for an automaker and tests the safety performance of cars. She watches a 2,000-kilogram car crash into a wall with a force of 30,000 newtons. What’s the acceleration of the car at impact?

Answer 1

I think it will be27,000 kilograms to accelerate thecar

Answer 2

15m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the newtons second law of motion,

Force = mass × acceleration

F = ma

Acceleration = Force/mass

Given Force = 30,000N

Mass = 2,000kg

Acceleration = 30,000/2,000

Acceleration = 15m/s²

Acceleration of the car after impact will be 15m/s²
