Question

A 750 kg car zooms away from a red light with an acceleration of 7.8 m/s2. What is the

average net force in Newtons that the car experiences?

Answer 1

5850N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the car = 750kg

Acceleration = 7.8m/s²

Unknown:

Net force = ?

Solution:

According to Newton's second law of motion;

Force = mass x acceleration

To find the net force input the given parameters:

Net force on the car = 750 x 7.8 = 5850N
