Question: A 1 6 4 7 kg car accelerates from a complete stop at a traffic light to a speed of 2 6 . 3 (

A 1647 kg car accelerates from a complete stop at a traffic light to a speed of 26.3( m)/(s) in 56 seconds (the car is on a perfectly flat surface).
The ground exerts a horizontal force on the tires preventing them from slipping as the car accelerates. What is the average of this force for the entire experiment?
N
If the tire does not slip at its point of contact (where the force is acting), how far does the force displace the tire?
m
Thus, how much work is done on the real car system by this force?
J
Consider, rather, an equivalent force displacing a point-particle in space. How much work does the force do?
J
