Question

A truck starts from rest and Rolls down a hill with constant acceleration it travels a distance of 480 in 20 seconds find its acceleration find the force acting on it if its mass is 1000 kg

Answer 1

Answer:

The truck starts from rest, so initial velocity = 0

Distance travelled = 400 m

Time taken = 20 s

We know the equation of motion, S = ut + ½ at2

400 = 0 + ½ a * (20)2

a = 2 m/s2

Now, mass = 7 metric tonnes

= 7 * 1000

= 7000 kg

So force = mass * acceleration

F = 7000 * 2

= 14000 N

Answer 2

Answer:

acceleration of truck will be finded by equation s=ut+1/2at2

480=1/2×a×400

480=200a

a=2.4m/s2
