What is the final velocity of a 1400 kg drag racer that’s engine applies 910000 N of Force for 120m

Explanation:

According to newtons first law of motion;

Force = mass * acceleration

F = ma

where a = v-u/t

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

F = m(v-u/t)

Ft = m(v-u)

Given parameters;

F = 910,000N

t = 120m = 120 *60 = 7200secs

m = 1400kg

u = 0m/s

Required parameter

Final velocity v

Substituting the given parameters into the formula to get v;

Ft = m(v-u)

910,000 * 72000 = 1400(v-0)

910,000 * 72000  = 1400v

v = (910,000 * 72000)/1400

v = 910,000 * 720/14

v = 910,000 * 60

v = 468,000,000 m/s

Hence the final velocity of the drag racer is 468,000,000 m/s
