Acar with a mass of 1500 kg accelerates when the traffic light turns green. if the net force on the car is 3750 newtons, what is the car's acceleration? *
your answer

2.5 ms⁻²

Explanation:

By Newton's 2nd law,

The rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the unbalance force applied on the object,

By that you can get the equation,

F = ma ⇒ a = F/m

where terms are in usual meaning

a = 3750/1500 = 2.5 ms⁻²

a)  Initial angular speed = 30 rad/s

b) Final angular speed = 70 rad/s        

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5at²

    Here s = 400 radians

              t = 8 s

              a = 5 rad/s²

    Substituting

             400 = u x 8 + 0.5 x 5 x 8²

              u = 30 rad/s

   Initial angular speed = 30 rad/s

b) We have equation of motion v = u + at

     Here u = 30 rad/s

               t = 8 s

              a = 5 rad/s²  

    Substituting

             v = 30 + 5 x 8 = 70 rad/s    

   Final angular speed = 70 rad/s
