An NIU student is driving slowly down the street in a car at an acceleration of 8.44 m/s2. The car and student has a combined mass of 1,610 kg. Another student of mass 75 kg decides to hop onto the hood of the car. What is the new acceleration of the car? Ignore friction between the car and the road and ignore air friction.
