Question

Equal forces are applied to a car and a truck which produce acceleration in both of them.
Which one has smaller acceleration ?

Answer 1

Answer:

For a given force, the acceleration produced in the body is inversely proportional to the

mass of the object (a µ 1/m). This means more the mass of an object, less will be the

acceleration produced init. Here, force applied on the truck as well as the car is same.

Since, the mass of a truck is greater than the mass of a car, therefore, the acceleration

of truck is smaller than the acceleration of car.

Answer 2

Answer:

truck has smaller acceleration while car have greater acceleration
