Question

A vehicle accelerates at a constant rate of 1.83 ms^-2 along a flat straight road. The force acting on the vehicle is 1.870 kN. Calculate the mass of the bike. Could you answer this with working out?

Answer 1

Given:-

• Acceleration (a) = 1.83 m/s²

• Force (F) = 1.870 kN

To Find:-

• Mass of the bike.

Formula used:-

• $m =\dfrac{F}{a}$

Solution:-

$➾\:m =\dfrac{F}{a}$

$➾\:m =\dfrac{1.870×1000}{1.83}$

$➾\:m =1021.857\:Kg$

or,

$➾\:m =1.021857×10³\:Kg$

Hence, the mass of bike is ${\bold{\underline{1021.857 \:Kg \:or\: 1.021857×10³ \:Kg.}}}$
