About this lesson
\(\bold{W = \Delta E_{mech} = F_\parallel d:}\) Calculating work
A 1170 kg car travels at 11.0 m/s.
- How much work needs to be done on the car to accelerate it to 24.0 m/s?
- What is the net force acting on the car that accelerates it, if the acceleration is uniform and happens over 95.0 m?
