Question

A truck starts from rest and rolls down a hill with constant
accelaration it travels a distance of 400m in 20sec what is its
accelaration
Find the force acting on it if its mass is 7 metric tonne

Hello,
The truck starts from rest and travels 400 m in 20 s Let
a be the acceleration of the truck
Using the equation,

The acceleration of the truck is 2 ms-2
Mass of the truck is, m = 7 metric tonne = 7000 Kg
We know, F = ma = 7000 Ð¥ 2 = 14000 N
Force that is making the truck move is 14000 N
Hope this helps,
