Question

Which would have a greater acceleration when a 10 N force is applied: a 2 gram toy truck or a 5 gram toy truck? A) 2 gram toy truck B) 5 gram toy truck C) Both would have the same acceleration D) It depends on the surface they are on

Answer 1

the 2 gram toy truck would have a greater acceleration when a 10 N force is applied. This is because acceleration is directly proportional to force and inversely proportional to mass, as described by Newton's second law (F=ma). Since the force is constant and the mass of the 2 gram toy truck is less than the 5 gram toy truck, the 2 gram toy truck would experience a greater acceleration. Therefore, the answer is A) 2 gram toy truck.
