Question

If a force of 1000N is required for a car to accelerate at a rate of `2` `m``/``s^2`, what is the mass of the car?

Answer 1

`500 kg`

Explanation:

Given,
Force (f) = `1000 N`
Acceleration (a) = `2 ms^-2`
Mass (m) = ?
We know that,
Force = mass `xx` acceleration
`-> 1000 = m xx 2`
`-> 1000 = 2m`
`-> m = 1000/2`
`:. Mass = 500 kg`
