A 849-kg car starts from rest on a horizontal roadway and accelerates eastward for 5.00 s when it reaches a speed of 35.0 m/s. What is the average force exerted on the car during this time

Answer :

Answer:

The average force exerted on the car during this time is 5,943 N

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the car, m = 849 kg

initial velocity of the car, u = 0

time of motion of the car, t = 5.00 s

final velocity of the car, v = 35 m/s

The average force exerted on the car during this time is given by;

[tex]F = ma \\\\F = \frac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\F = \frac{849(35-0)}{5}\\\\F = \frac{849(35)}{5}\\\\ F = 849*7\\\\F = 5,943 \ N[/tex]

Therefore, the average force exerted on the car during this time is 5,943 N

Answer:

5943N

Let's say (+x) = eastward

Average horizontal acceleration

ax = vx -v0x/5.00s

= 35.0m/s-0/5.00s

= +7.09m/s

From here we apply the second law of newton

During this period average horizontal force acting on car

Summation x = max = (849kg)(+7.09m/s²)

= 5943N

+5.943x10³N

= 5.94kN east ward.
