Question

the engine in a 582kg car can supply a force of 2312n. what is the resulting acceleration?
answer:

what is are units for your answer?
select one:
a n
b. m/s²
c kg

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Newton's second - law formula

$F = ma$, where $F$ is force, $m$ is mass, and $a$ is acceleration. We need to solve for $a$, so $a=\frac{F}{m}$.

Step2: Substitute given values

Given $F = 2312N$ and $m = 582kg$. Then $a=\frac{2312}{582}\ m/s^{2}\approx3.97\ m/s^{2}$.

Answer:

3.97
b. m/s²
