Answer:
11 m/s^2.
Explanation:
Given:
Mass = 75 kg
Force = 825 N
F = m × a
a = 825 ÷ 75
= 11 m/s^2.
Answer:
11 m/s²
Explanation:
Deceleration: This can be defined as the rate of decrease of velocity. The S.I unit of deceleration is m/s².
From the question,
F = md ………………… Equation 1
Where F = Force acting on the dummy towards the rear of the car, m = mass of the dummy, d = deceleration of the dummy.
make d the subject of the equation
d = F/m…………… Equation 2
Given: F = 825 N, m = 75 kg.
substitute into equation 2
d = 825/75
d = 11 m/s²
