Your own car has a mass of 2000 kg. If your car produces a force of 5000 N, how fast will it accelerate?

2.5m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of car  = 2000kg

Force produced by the car  = 5000N

Unknown:

Acceleration of the car  = ?

Solution:

According to Newton's second law of motion, Force is a product of mass and acceleration.

  Force  = mass x acceleration

Now, insert the parameters and find the unknown;

  5000 = 2000 x acceleration

   Acceleration  =   = 2.5m/s²
