Question

A loaded truck starts from rest and rolls down a billy road with a constant acceleration. The
truck travels a distance of lkm in 60 sec, what is its acceleration? Find the magnitude of net
force acting on a truck if its mass is 1200kg.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given data:

Mass of stone(m)=7000 kg

Distance(S)=400 meter

Time(t)=20 second

1) We have to find the acceleration of the truck

So from the equation of motion S=ut+

2

1

a×t

2

, whereu=0

S=

2

1

a×t

2

a=

t

2

2×S

=

20×20

2×400

=2

m

2) Force acting on truck

So,from newton's 2

nd

law of motion

F

=ma=7000×2=14000N=14kN
