2. What is the net force exerted on a 80.0 kg race-car driver while the race car is accelerating from 0 to 50.0 m/s in 5.50 s?*

The net force exerted on the race-car driver is 727.3 N

Explanation:

Acceleration

According to Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of an object a is directly proportional to the net force F and inversely proportional to the object's mass m:

Since we don't have the value of the acceleration, we must use the kinematic equations to calculate it.

The main formula for accelerated motion is:

Where vf is the final speed of the object, vo is its initial speed, a is the acceleration, and t is the time.

The race-car driver accelerates from vo=0 to 50 m/s in t=5.5 s. We can calculate the acceleration, solving the above equation for a:

Now we calculate the net force:

The net force exerted on the race-car driver is 727.3 N

the answer would be c. motion and direction

i hope this : )

a lot of it means it can be "burned" for energy and sold at one price. if it is scarce, the price will go up
