\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/.
