Why is a greater amount of force needed to accelerate a truck than a jeepney even if they are running with the same velocity?

The truck has a greater mass and therefore a greater amount of inertia to overcome. To accelerate a greater mass requires a greater force.


Which object will accelerate more if the same force is applied to both a pickup truck or a trctor-trailer truck?

Whichever is lighter will accelerate more quickly.


When a truck pulls a trailer and truck accelerate forward even though the action and reaction forces are the same size but are in opposite directions why don't these forces balance each other?

The action force and reaction force occur on different objects, so they do not cancel each other out. The forward force applied by the truck is on the trailer, causing it to accelerate forward. The equal and opposite reaction force from the trailer acts on the truck, causing it to accelerate in the forward direction.


How much force is needed to accelerate an 1800 kg truck 4 meters per second?

Force = mass * acceleration and acceleration is in units of meters per second squared. I will assume you mean this. m/s2 Force = (1800 kg)(4 m/s2) = 7200 Newtons ----------------------


Would more force be needed to stop a motorcyle or a semi truck?

More force would be needed to stop a semi truck than a motorcycle. This is because a semi truck is heavier and has more momentum, requiring more force to slow down or stop.


How much force is required to accelerate an 1800 kg truck at 3 mss?

force = mass x accel = 1800 x 3 = 5400 Newtons


When a truck pulls a trailer the trailer and truck accelerate forward even though the action and reaction forces are the same size but opposite directions Why don't these forces balance each other?

The action and reaction forces between the truck and trailer do balance each other, but they act on different objects. The forward force from the truck on the trailer causes the trailer to accelerate forward, while the equal and opposite force from the trailer on the truck causes the truck to accelerate forward. The net result is that both the truck and trailer move forward together.


When a truck pulls a trailer the trailer and truck accelerate forward even though the action and reaction forces are the same size but in opposite directions Why don't these forces balance each othe?

While the forces between the truck and trailer are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, they act on different objects (truck and trailer) resulting in acceleration of the entire system. The truck exerts a force on the trailer causing it to accelerate forward, and in return, the trailer exerts an equal and opposite force on the truck. As both objects have different masses, this results in them accelerating in the direction of the larger force, which is from the truck to the trailer.


You jump off a truck and accelerate toward the surface of the Earth Does the Earth accelerate toward you?

Yes, according to Newton's third law of motion, when you jump off the truck, you exert a force on the Earth, causing it to accelerate slightly towards you. However, due to the Earth's much larger mass, the acceleration of the Earth would be too small to be noticeable.


When a moving truck collides with a falling leaf Why doesn't the truck accelerate like the leaf does?

The acceleration of an object is dependent on its mass and the force applied to it. The moving truck has much more mass than the leaf, so it requires a greater force to accelerate it significantly. In this scenario, the force of the falling leaf on the truck is not enough to cause a noticeable acceleration due to the massive difference in their masses.
