Question

A tow truck pulls a 1225 kg car and accelerates at a rate of 3 m/s^2. What

is the force of the tow truck?
F = ma

Answer 1

`\huge{\boxed{3675 \: N}}`

Step-by-step explanation:

The force acting on the tow truck can be found by using the formula

`\bold{F = mass × acceleration}`

From the question

mass = 1225 kg

acceleration= 3 m/s²

F = 1225 × 3 = 3675

We have the final answer as

3675 N
