A blue car weighing 1,302 kg is accelerating forward at a rate of 4 m/s 2 . What is the forward force of the car? (1 point) Responses 5,208 N 5,208 N 1,306 N 1,306 N 1,298 N 1,298 N 325.5 N

1 answer

To calculate 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 * a

Given that the mass of the car (m) is 1,302 kg and the acceleration (a) is 4 m/s^2, we can substitute these values into the equation:

F = 1,302 kg * 4 m/s^2
F = 5,208 N

Therefore, the forward force of the car is 5,208 N.
