Answer:
300N
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of car = 1500kg
Initial velocity = 0m/s
Distance covered = 45m
Time = 15s
Unknown:
Net force applied = ?
Solution:
From Newton's second law:
Force = mass x acceleration
Force = mass x [tex]\frac{v - u}{t}[/tex]
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
Final velocity = [tex]\frac{45}{15}[/tex] =3m/s
Force = 1500 x [tex]\frac{3 - 0}{15}[/tex] = 300N
