To find the forward force of the car, we can use Newton's second law of motion, which states that force (F) is equal to mass (m) multiplied by acceleration (a):
\[ F = m \times a \]
Given:
- Mass of the car (m) = 1,302 kg
- Acceleration (a) = 4 m/s²
Now, we can calculate the force:
\[ F = 1,302 \, \text{kg} \times 4 \, \text{m/s}^2 \]
\[ F = 5,208 \, \text{N} \]
So, the forward force of the car is **5,208 N**.
\[ F = m \times a \]
Given:
- Mass of the car (m) = 1,302 kg
- Acceleration (a) = 4 m/s²
Now, we can calculate the force:
\[ F = 1,302 \, \text{kg} \times 4 \, \text{m/s}^2 \]
\[ F = 5,208 \, \text{N} \]
So, the forward force of the car is **5,208 N**.
