Trouble finding the magnitude of a net force required.
Here is the problem I have: 1. A 800 kg rocket sled can be accelerated at a constant rate from rest to 1500 km/h in 2.1 s. What is the magnitude of the required net force? First I converted the a from 1500 km/h to 416.7 m/s I then used F=ma but I got the result as 333360 N but this answer is...- mcaustin
