Question

A 450 kg horse starts a running. If the horse is accelerating at 1.2 m/s2,

which force is closest to the net force acting on the vehicle?*

Answer 1

Force of 540 Kgm/s^2 is closest to the net force acting on the vehicle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Force is the change in momentum per unit time

This relationship is equivalent to product of mass and acceleration

Thus F = Mass * acceleration

Substituting the given values in above equation we get -

F = 450 Kg * 1.2 m/s^2

F = 540 Kgm/s^2
