Complete Question

The frictional force of moving Toyota Prius was given as  - 259.7 N. net force was 795 N and determined the force of the engine needed to cause the acceleration

Answer:

The value is [tex]F_e = 1054.7 \ N[/tex]  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The frictional force is  [tex]F_f = -259.7 \ N[/tex]

   The net force is  [tex]F_{net} = 795 \ N[/tex]

Generally the net force is mathematically represented as

     [tex]F_{net} = F_e - F_f[/tex]

=>   [tex]F_e = F_{net} - F_f[/tex]

=> [tex]F_e = 795 - [-259.7][/tex]

=> [tex]F_e = 1054.7 \ N[/tex]
