Read explanation and see if that helps

Explanation:

Newton's second law of motion states that the force on an object is given by f = ma. since the car is moving to the right at a constant speed of 1.44 m/s the acceleration a = 0. this means that there is no net force driving the car.

direction doesnt matter as long as the car is moving in a straight line at a constant speed the force will always be zero

The acceleration of the car in both directions (right and left) is zero.

The given parameters;

  • mass of the car, m = 1850 kg
  • speed of the car, v = 1.44 m/s

The net force on the car is calculated by applying Newton's second law of motion as shown below;

F = ma

where;

  • a is the acceleration of the car

At constant speed, the acceleration of the car will be zero

F = m(a)

F m(0)

F = 0

When the car is moving left, the net force is also zero since the acceleration is zero.

Thus, the acceleration of the car in both directions (right and left) is zero.
