Step-by-step explanation:

acceleration is directly proportional to the force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object

a=f/m

=1700/1300

Hello!

Answer:


\Large \boxed{\sf 1.30 m/s^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

→ The force applied to an object is equal to:


\sf a = F / m

Where:

- a is the acceleration

- F is the force

- m is the mass

→ So, the acceleration of the car is equal to:


\sf a = F / m \\\\= 1700 N / 1300 kg\\\\ \approx 1.30 m/s^2

Conclusion:

The acceleration of the car is 1.30m/s².
