Question

A 2500-N net force acting on a 880-kg car accelerates it at a rate of ______ m/s/s

Answer 1

a = 2.84 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Net force, F = 2500 N

Mass of the car, m = 880 kg

We need to find the acceleration of the car. Net force is given by :

F = ma

`a=(F)/(m)\\\\a=(2500\ N)/(880\ m/s^2)\\\\a=2.84\ m/s^2`

So, the acceleration of the car is 2.84 m/s².
