Arocket car is developed to break the land speed record along a salt flat in utah. however, the safety of the driver must be considered, so the acceleration of the car must not exceed 5g (or five times the acceleration of gravity) during the test. using the latest materials and technology, the total mass of the car (including the fuel) is 6000 kilograms, and the mass of the fuel is one-third of the total mass of the car (i. e., 2000 kilograms). the car is moved to the starting line (and left at rest), at which time the rocket is ignited. the rocket fuel is expelled at a constant speed of 900 meters per second relative to the car, and is burned at a constant rate until used up, which takes only 15 seconds. ignore all effects of friction in this problem.
find the final acceleration afinal of the car as the rocket is just about to use up its fuel supply. express your answer to two significant figures.

Will give brainliest! which statement best describes the similarities between fundamental forces? electromagnetic and strong nuclear forces influence the interaction between charged particles within an atom. gravitational and magnetic forces are both types of charges that occur in nature. nuclear and magnetic forces are both related to mass and weight. strong nuclear force is most like electrical force because they are both related to distance.
