Question

with what force will Annabella’s car hit a tree if her car has a mass of 5000 kg and an acceleration of 2 m/s2

Answer 1

F=10,000N

Step-by-step explanation:

F=ma

m=5000kg

a=2m/s^2

`F=(5000kg)*(2m/s^(2) )\\\\\\\\F=10000N`

Answer 2

`\boxed {\boxed {\sf 10,000 \ Newtons}}`

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the force of Annabella's car when it hits a tree.

According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, force is the product of mass and acceleration. Therefore, it is calculated using the following formula:

`F=ma`

The mass of the car is 5000 kilograms and the acceleration is 2 meters per second squared.

• m= 5000 kg
• a= 2 m/s²

Substitute the values into the formula.

`F= (5000 \ kg)(2 \ m/s^2)`

Multiply.

`F= 10,000 \ kg*m/s^2`

Convert the units. 1 kilogram meter per second squared is equal to 1 Newton, so our answer of 10,000 kg*m/s² is equal to 10,000 Newtons.

`F= 10,000 \ N`

Annabella's car hits the tree with a force of 10,000 Newtons.
