A car rolls down a hill with a slope such that the gravitational pull in the direction
Question:
A car rolls down a hill with a slope such that the gravitational “pull” in the direction of motion is one-tenth of the standard gravitational force (see Problem 1.26). If the car has a mass of 2500 kg, find the acceleration.
Data from 1.26
The standard acceleration (at sea level and 45◦ latitude) due to gravity is 9.806 65 m/s2. What is the force needed to hold a mass of 2 kg at rest in this gravitational field? How much mass can a force of 1 N support?
Step by Step Answer:
The car is rolling down on a slope such that the applied force on the car is equal to 1 10 of standa...View the full answer

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
