Question

A 1,200 kg car accelerates at 3 m/s2. What net force is the car experiencing during thisacceleration?0 3600 NO 2000 N0 2400 NOON

Answer 1

m = mass = 1,200 kg

A = acceleration = 3 m/s^2

Apply Newton's second law:

Force = mass x acceleration

F = 1,200 x 3 =3600 N

The net force the car experiences is 3600 N
