Answer:

2.5 m/s²

Explanation:

From the question

F = ma................... Equation 1

Where F = Tension, m = mass, a = acceleration of the car

make a the subject of the equation

a = F/m.................. Equation 2

Given: F = 1500 N, m = 600 kg

Substitute these values into equation 2

a = 1500/600

a = 2.5 m/s²

Hence the largest acceleration the rope can give to the car is 2.5 m/s²
