Question

Consider a large truck and a small car driving up a straight steep hill. The truck is moving at 60 miles per hour and the car at 30 miles per hour. Assuming that the speeds are constant, which of the two vehicles experiences a larger net force?A. The truck.

B. The car.
C. The same: zero net force.

Answer 1

The correct answer is option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Force is defined as push or pull on an object with mass due to which change velocity occurs (acceleration).

`Force=Mass* Acceleration`

`F=ma`

if ,v = constant

Net force on the vehilce

F = Normal - Weight

0 = N = W

N = W

So, the force experienced by the object will be due to its mass, and higher the mass more will be the experienced by an object.So, large truck will experience larger net force.
