Question

What is a truck's acceleration if the net external force on the truck is 560 N and it has a total of mass of 1000 kg?

Answer 1

Answer:

Acceleration of Truck = 0.56 m/s²

Explanation:

Given information:

Mass of truck = 1,000 kilogram

Net force applied by Truck = 560 N

Find:

Acceleration of Truck

Computation:

Force = Mass x Acceleration

Net force applied by Truck = Mass of truck x Acceleration of Truck

560 = 1,000 x Acceleration of Truck

Acceleration of Truck = 560 / 1,000

Acceleration of Truck = 0.56 m/s²
