What is the acceleration of a $2000-\mathrm{kg}$ car if the net force on the car is $4000 \mathrm{N} ?$
A 970.-kg car starts from rest on a horizontal roadway and accelerates eastward for 5.00 s when it reaches a speed of 25.0 m/s. What is the average force exerted on the car during this time?
Find the acceleration of an automobile of mass $1500 \mathrm{~kg}$ acted upon by a driving force of $22 \overline{0} 0 \mathrm{~N}$ that is opposed by a frictional force of $450 \mathrm{~N}$.
