1. what net force is required to accelerate a car at the rate of 2 m/s² if the car has a mass of 3,000 kg?
1. what net force is required to accelerate a car at the rate of 2 m/s² if the car has a mass of 3,000 kg?
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Recall Newton's second - law formula
$F = ma$
Step2: Identify values of mass and acceleration
$m = 3000\ kg$, $a=2\ m/s^{2}$
Step3: Substitute values into the formula
$F=3000\times2$
Answer:
$6000\ N$
