If a car with a mass of 1500kg is accelerating at a rate of 3.0 m/s2, calculate the force accelerating the car?
The force accelerating the car can be calculated using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the force acting on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration.
Force = mass * acceleration
= 1500kg * 3.0 m/s^2
= 4500 N
Therefore, the force accelerating the car is 4500 Newtons.
