Answer:


\boxed {\boxed {\sf 7500 \ Newtons }}

Step-by-step explanation:

Force is the product of mass and acceleration.


F=ma

The mass of the sports car is 1500 kilograms and the acceleration is 5.0 meters per square second.


m=1500 \ kg \\a= 5 \ m/s^2

Substitute the values into the formula.


F= 1500 \ kg * 5 \ m/s^2

Multiply.


F= 7500 \ kg*m/s^2

  • 1 kilogram meter per square second is equal to 1 Newton.
  • Our answer is equal to 7500 Newtons.


F= 7500 \ N

The force acting on the sports car is 7500 Newtons.
