Question

A car has a mass of 1,200 kg. What is its acceleration when the engine exerts a force of 600 N? (Formula: F=ma)

O 0.5 m/s2

2 m/s2

O 600 m/s2

1,800 m/s2

Answer 1

0.5 m/s^2

Hope it works!

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Option (a)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a car, m = 1200 kg

Force exerted by the engine, F = 600 N

Noe force,F = ma

a is the acceleration of the engine

`a=(F)/(m)\\\\a=(600\ N)/(1200\ kg)\\\\a=0.5\ m/s^2`

So, the acceleration of the car is 0.5 m/s².
