Question

A vehicle has a mass of 1500kg. What must be the force between the vehicle and the road if the vehicle is to be stopped with a negative acceleration of 1.7 ms

Answer 1

Answer:

F=ma

=1500*1.7=2550N

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Here, m = 1500 kg,

a = - 1.7 m s-²​

Therefore, F = ma

= - 1500 × 1.7

= -2550 N

Negative Sign shown that the direction of the force is opposite to the direction of motion of the vehicle.
