1. A car weighs 1000kg, you can push it .05 m/s2, how much force (F) are you applying

to the car? Here we use F=MA:
F= 1000 x .05
F= 50 newtons

Mass of the car (m) = 1000 Kg

Acceleration (a) = 0.05 m/s^2

Let the force we are applying to the car be F N.

By using the equation,

F = ma, we get

F = 1000×0.05 N = 50 N

Answer: We are applying 50 N force to the car in the direction of motion.
