Understanding the Concepts
* Newton's Second Law of Motion: This law states that the net force acting on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration: F = m * a
Calculations
1. Identify the given values:
* Mass (m) = 900 kg
* Acceleration (a) = 32.0 m/s²
2. Apply Newton's Second Law:
* F = m * a
* F = 900 kg * 32.0 m/s²
* F = 28,800 N (Newtons)
Answer
The net force on the dragster is 28,800 Newtons.
