Answer:
Acceleration = 2.8 m/s²
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Mass = 1500 kg
Net force = 4200 Newton
To find the truck's acceleration;
Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of a physical object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the physical object and inversely proportional to its mass.
Mathematically, it is given by the formula;
[tex] Acceleration = \frac {Net \; force}{mass} [/tex]
Substituting into the formula, we have;
[tex] Acceleration = \frac {4200}{1500} [/tex]
Acceleration = 2.8 m/s²
