A 2000 N net force will give a car with some amount of mass an acceleration of 4 m/s2 What acceleration will the same net force give a truck whose mass is twice that of the car?

2m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Net force on the car  = 2000N

Acceleration = 4m/s²

Unknown:

Acceleration of a car twice the mass  = ?

Solution:

Let us first find the mass of the car;

 Force  = mass x acceleration

         Mass =  

 Mass =   = 500kg

 Now,

     whose mass is twice that of the car

    Mass of the new car = 2 x 500  = 1000kg

So;

  Acceleration  =  

  Acceleration  =  = 2m/s²
