Answer:
See the explanation below.
Explanation:
We know from Newton's second law that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration. In this way, we have the following equation.
∑F = m*a
where:
∑F = sum of the forces [N] (units of Newtons)
m = mass of the car [kg]
a = acceleration [m/s²]
Therefore we have two forces one that drives the car forward and another that opposes the movement.
[tex]500-500 = m*a\\m*a=0\\a=0[/tex]
This tells us that the acceleration is zero and therefore the movement is with constant speed. That is, the speed does not vary during the movement of the vehicle.
