A truck has a mass of 2000 kilograms. The driving force created by the engine is 3000 newtons. What is the acceleration caused by this unbalanced force?

I think 2000*3000

Which equals 6 million

Also, you didn't have to make a 2nd thread on this.

If there is no friction then the only force in x direction is the 3k N generated by the engine.  so use f=ma to find the acceleration. where f is force (3k) ,m is mass (2k), a is acceleration. 3k/2k = 1.5 m/s^2
