Concept explainers
If a loaded truck that can accelerate at
Acceleration attained by the truck.
Answer to Problem 61A
The resulting acceleration of the truck is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Original acceleration of truck,
Driving force remains the same.
After truck losses weight, mass of the truck is three-fourth of its original mass.
Formula Used:
From Newton’s second law, the net force is given as
Where,
Calculation:
Let, the initial driving force is F , mass of the block is m and acceleration is a ,
Driving force remains the same,
New mass of the truck,
Now,
Conclusion:
Therefore, the resulting acceleration of the truck is
