Answer:

Acceleration, [tex]a=2.1\ m/s^2[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a truck, m = 2000 kg

Force used to move the truck, F = 4200 N

We need to find the acceleration of the truck. The force acting on the truck is given by the expression as follows :

F = ma

a is the acceleration of the truck

[tex]a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{4200}{2000}\\\\a=2.1\ m/s^2[/tex]

So, the acceleration of the truck is [tex]2.1\ m/s^2[/tex].
