What is the net force exerted on a 150.0kg race-car driver while the race car is accelerating from 0 to 58.7m/s i
3.50s?

Answer 1

2515.7N

Step-by-step explanation:

First step is to find the acceleration:

U = 0 and V =58.7 m/s

a = (V-U)/t

where, t = 3.5s

a = 58.7/3.5

so, in order to find the net force,

F= ma

= 150kg × 58.7/3.5

= 2515.7 N
