Question

A 1,500-kg truck has a net force of 4,200 N acting on it . What is the trucks' acceleration

Answer 1

Answer:

2.8 m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

$a = \frac{f}{m}$

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

$a = \frac{4200}{1500} = \frac{42}{15} \\ = 2.8$

We have the final answer as

2.8 m/s²

Hope this helps you
