The size of force B is 3800 N.

What is force?

This can be defined as the product of the mass and acceleration of a body.

From the diagram attached,

Formula:

  • Fa-Fb = ma................... Equation 1

Where:

  • Fa = Size of Force A
  • Fb = Size of Force B
  • m = mass of the car
  • a = Acceleration of the car

make Fb the subject of the equation

  • Fb = Fa-ma................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given:

  • Fa = 5000 N
  • m = 800 kg
  • a = 1.5 m/s²

Substitute the given values into equation 2

  • Fb = 5000-(800×1.5)
  • Fb = 5000-1200
  • Fb = 3800 N.

Hence, The size of force B is 3800 N.
