You and a friend are on a road trip when your car runs out of gas only 20 meters from a gas station fortunately you're in Montana so the road is perfectly horizontal. You put the car in neutral and apply a horizontal force of 455 N, while your friend applies a horizontal force of 585 N in the same direction. The cars mass is m= 1600kg. The car begins to move, and you push the car to the pump. The car started from rest when you and your friend began pushing. Ignore all friction and air resistance What is the total force applied? what is the work done by your friend over the trip to the gas station? what is the kinetic energy of your car 3 seconds after the start of your trip to the gas station?
