Answer in units of m/s2
2) 011 (part 2 of 3) 10.0 points
What is the size of the average force on the
dragster during this time interval?
Answer in units of N
3) 012 (part 3 of 3) 10.0 points
Assume the driver has a mass of 77.2 kg .
What horizontal force does the seat exert
on the driver?
Answer in units of N
Explanation / Answer
1) a = v/t = 26.7/.56 =47.67 2) F = Ma = 921.9*47.67 = 43954.6 3) F'=77.2*47.67 =3680
