Question

In a performance test, each of two cars takes 8.6 s to accelerate from rest to 26 m/s. Car A has a mass of 1424 kg, and car B has a mass of 1949 kg. Find the net average force that acts on (a) car A and (b) car B during the test.

Step 1

Given: Mass of car A, \(m_A = 1424 \, \text{kg}\) Final velocity of car A, \(v_A = 26 \, \text{m/s}\) Time taken for acceleration, \(\Delta t = 8.6 \, \text{s}\) Using the formula \(F_{\text{average}} = \frac{m_A \cdot v_A}{\Delta t}\), we can plug in the values Show more…
