Question

Calculate the acceleration of a car if the force on the car is 450 Newtons and the mass is 1300 kilograms.

Answer 1

`\Large {\underline { \sf {Required \; Solution :}}}`

We have ―

• Force, F = 450 N
• Mass of the car, m = 1300 kg

We have been asked to calculate the acceleration of the car.

`\qquad \implies\boxed{\red{\sf{ F = ma }}}\\`

• F denotes Force
• m denotes mass
• a denotes acceleration

`\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf { 450 = 1300a} \\`

`\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf {\cancel{ (450)/(1300)} = 1300a} \\`

`\quad\twoheadrightarrow\boxed{\red{\sf{0.346 \; ms^(-2) = a }}}\\`

Therefore, acceleration of the car is 0.346 m/s².
