Question

Harry is pushing a car down a level road at 2.0 m/s with a force of 243 N. The

total force acting on the car in the opposite direction, including road friction and
air resistance, is which of the following?
a. Slightly more than 243 N.
b. Exactly equal to 243 N.
c. Slightly less than 243 N.

Answer 1

a car moving at a speed shows that the force applied to the car is greater than the frictional force and air resistance

c. Slightly less than 243 N.

Answer 2

C, slightly less than 243 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Road friction and air resistance aren't that much on a force. Try pushing something and see how much friction there is. Not that much.
