Acar has a mass of 1600 kg. it is stuck in the snow and is being pulled out by a cable that applies a force of 7560 n due north. the resistance of the snow and mud also applies a force to the car, which has a magnitude of 7340 n and points due south. what is the acceleration of the car?

The acceleration of the car is 0.138 m/s²

The given parameters;

mass of the car, m = 1600 kg

applied force, F = 7560 N due north

resistance of the mud and car combined = 7340 N due south

The resultant of the upward force is calculated as;

F = F(north) - F(south)

F = 7560 N - 7340 N

F = 220 N

The acceleration of the car is determined by applying Newton's second law of motion;

F = ma

where;

a is the acceleration of the car

Thus, the acceleration of the car is 0.138 m/s²
