Question

1) A 1750 kg car sits at rest in a level parking lot

Calculate the force of gravity on the car.

Answer 1

~17,500N

Step-by-step explanation:

F=mg Any force is equal to mass times acceleration(Second law of neuton) In this case acceleration is g, which is the acceleration of gravity on earth. g=9.8m/s² which I round up to 10m/s² Therefore F=mg=1750kgx10m/s²=17,500N
