Find the acceleration of an 800-kg car that has a net force of 4,000 N acting upon it.

The acceleration of the car is 5m/s²

Explanation:

Given data

Force F = 4,000N

Mass of car m = 800kg

Acceleration a=?

Applying the Newton's second law of motion which states that the rate of change of momentum of a body is proportional to the external force and takes place in the direction of the force

F=ma

a = F/m

a = 4000/800

a=5m/s²
