A mechanic pushes a 2.30 ✕ 103-kg car from rest to a speed of v, doing 4,800 J of work in the process. During this time, the car moves 30.0 m. Neglecting friction between car and road, find v and the horizontal force exerted on the car.

(a) the speed v

______m/s

(b) the horizontal force exerted on the car (Enter the magnitude.)
_______N

The horizontal force applied is  160 N while the velocity is  2.03 m/s.

What is the speed of the car?

The work done by the car is obtained as the product of the force and the distance;

W = F x

F = ?

x = 30.0 m

W = 4,800 J

F = 4,800 J/30.0 m

F = 160 N

But F = ma

a = F/m

a = 160 N/2.30 ✕ 10^3-kg

a= 0.069 m/s

Now;

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

u = 0/ms because the car started from rest

v = √2as

v = √2 * 0.069 * 30

v = 2.03 m/s
