Question

A tow truck exerts an 18300 N force upon a 400-kg car to drag it out of a mud puddle onto a road. A 17500 N force opposes the cars motion. The plane of motion of the car is horizontal. Determine the acceleration produced in the car. Also find the final velocity of the car as it comes out of the puddle in 5 seconds.

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer is

$a = 2 \:m {s}^{ - 1}$

Velocity is

$v = ut + \frac{1}{2} a {t }^{2} \\ v = 25 \: m {s}^{ - 1}$
