A car of mass 1.15 * 103 kg is stalled on a horizontal road. You and your friends give the car a constant, forward, horizontal push. There is friction between the car and the road. (a) Name the four external forces that act on the car as you and your friends push it and what exerts each force. (You can regard the combined push from you and your friends as a single force.) (b) The combined force that you and your friends exert has magnitude 8.00 * 102 N, and starting from rest the car reaches a speed of 1.40 m/s after you have pushed it 5.00 m. Find the magnitude of the constant friction force that acts on the car.
