What is the rate of acceleration of 2000 kilogram truck if a force of 4200 n is used to make it start moving forward

2.1 m. s⁻²

Solution:

Data Given:

Force = 4200 N = 4200 Kg. m. s⁻²

Mass = 2000 Kg

Acceleration = ?

Formula Used;

Force = Mass * Acceleration

Solving for Acceleration,

Acceleration = Force : Mass

Putting values,

Acceleration = 4200 Kg. m. s⁻² : 2000 Kg

Acceleration = 2.1 m. s⁻²
