A car mass 500 kg accelerates 1m/s sqare the force due to eng is 600N the average frictional force is

To find the average frictional force acting on the car, we need to consider Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration:

Net Force = Mass x Acceleration

In this case, the net force is the sum of the force due to the engine and the frictional force:

Net Force = Force by Engine + Frictional Force

Given that the force due to the engine is 600 N and the acceleration is 1 m/s^2, we can rearrange the equation to solve for the unknown frictional force:

Frictional Force = Net Force - Force by Engine

Substituting the given values:

Frictional Force = Mass x Acceleration - Force by Engine
Frictional Force = 500 kg x 1 m/s^2 - 600 N

Now we can calculate the value:

Frictional Force = 500 kg - 600 N
Frictional Force = -100 N

Therefore, the average frictional force acting on the car is -100 N, indicating that the frictional force is acting opposite to the direction of motion of the car.
