An automobile vehicle has a mass of 1500 kg. What must be the force between the vehicle and road if the vehicle is to be stopped with a negative acceleration of \( 1.7 m/s^2 \) ?
Answer :
Given, mass of the vehicle (m) = 1500 kg
Acceleration (a) = \( -1.7 m/s^2 \)
As per the second law of motion, F = ma
F = 1500 × (-1.7) = -2550 N
