Answer:

Acceleration of truck is 4.31 ms⁻² .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Mass of truck = 2225 Kg

Force on it = 9580 N

Acceleration = ?

Solution:

Formula

F = ma

F = force

m = mass

a = acceleration

Now we will put the values in formula.

F= ma

a = F/m

a = 9580 N / 2225 Kg

a = 4.31 ms⁻² ( N = kg m.s⁻²)
