Problem

A2. Two persons manage to push a motorcar of mass 1200 kg at a uniform velocity along a level road. The same motorcar can be pushed by three persons to produce an acceleration of 0.2 m s−20.2 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}^{-2}. With what force does each person push the motorcar? (Assume that all persons push the motorcar with the same muscular effort.)
