Question

in a crash test, a 2,500 kg car hits a concrete barrier at 1.3 m/s². calculate the amount of force at which the car strikes the barrier. the car strikes the barrier with a force of n.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Newton's second law

Force formula: $F = m \times a$

Step2: Substitute given values

$m = 2500\ \text{kg}$, $a = 1.3\ \text{m/s}^2$
$F = 2500 \times 1.3$

Step3: Calculate the force

$F = 3250$

Answer:

3250
