. A 2500 kg car that is accelerating from rest has a forward thrust of 1200 N and a
resistive force of 1000 N.
A. What is the net force acting on the car?
B. What work is done for the car to reach a speed of a speed of 1.5 m/s?
C. How far must the car travel to reach a speed of 1.5 m/s?

A)200N

B)2812.5J

C)14.0625m

the answer would be 32*f

air exerts forces on falling objects near earth’s surface.

explanation:

the term 'free falls' refer to object that are falling towards the earth, in a situation in which gravity is the only force acting on the object.

for an object in free fall, the acceleration is constant (g, the gravitational acceleration), and so the velocity of the object constantly increases.

for objects near earth's surface, there is always another force acting on the object: the resistance due to the air. this force is opposed to the direction of fall of the object, and it is proportional to the velocity of the object, so as the object falls down, this force increases up to a point when it balances the force of gravity, and the object continues its motion at constant velocity (called terminal velocity). since in this case gravity is not the only force acting on the object, we are not in a situation of free fall.
