a car has a maximum acceleration of 5.8 m/s2 . what will the maximum acceleration be if the car is towing another car of the same mass? neglect the additional friction force. express your answer using two significant figures.



Answer :

The maximum acceleration if the car is towing another car of the same mass is 2.8 m/s².

Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of an item with appreciation to time. Accelerations are vector portions. The orientation of an item's acceleration is given by the orientation of the net pressure appearing on that object.

Case 1:-

acceleration = force/mass

5.8 = F/m

Let each mass of the car is m

mass of two car = 2m

a = F/2m

So new acceleration will become = 5.8/2

                                                        = 2.8 m/s²

Acceleration is the charge at which velocity modifications with time, in terms of each speed and route. A factor or an object moving in a straight line is accelerated if it quickens or slows down. movement on a circle is extended despite the fact that the rate is consistent because the course is continually changing.
