What is the net force required to accelerate a 896.5 kg car at 2.50 m/sec2?
Force is mass*acceleration (force is in Newtons, N, when mass is in kg and acceleration is in m/s2), so
$${\mathtt{force}} = {\mathtt{896.5}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{2.5}} \Rightarrow {\mathtt{force}} = {\mathtt{2\,241.25}}$$ Newtons
