In a crash test, a 2,500 kg car hits a concrete barrier at 1.3 m/s2. If the car strikes the barrier with a force of 3,250 N, how much resistance force does the barrier provide? N This pair of forces is an example of Newton's law of motion.

    Answer: 3250 N in the opposite direction

    Explanation:

    According to Newton's third law of motion:

    "Each action has an equal and opposite reaction"

    To understand it better:

    When two bodies interact between them, appear equal forces and opposite senses in each of them. For example, if a body A exerts a force on another body B, it performs on A another force with the same magnitude and in the opposite direction.

    Hence, this law states that for each force acting on a body, ther is a force of equal intensity but in the opposite direction on the body that produced it.

    In this sense if the car hit the concrete barrier with a force of 3250 N, the concrete barrier will exert a force of - 3250 N on the car (where the negative sign indicates the force is acting in the opposite direction).
