Step-by-step explanation:
Force is the product of mass and acceleration.
![F=ma](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/physics/high-school/ihrhtw123j8s81l00k9y4614kll1tbamvz.png)
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](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/physics/high-school/z1ztx1sxp5llz8ajf60hqg6k1f16j026hg.png)
Substitute the values into the formula.
![F= 1500 \ kg * 5 \ m/s^2](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/physics/high-school/oxc7ts5m0209127ogfqwws359iga7cc8lo.png)
Multiply.
![F= 7500 \ kg*m/s^2](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/physics/high-school/otzaz15m4rygb5xfct55k9ep578r2h56oo.png)
- 1 kilogram meter per square second is equal to 1 Newton.
- Our answer is equal to 7500 Newtons.
![F= 7500 \ N](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/physics/high-school/nulrsc2j20vjeus80m7t6sakxcorqkihuo.png)
The force acting on the sports car is 7500 Newtons.
