Answer:The answer is 3000 N.
Force (F) is the multiplication of mass (m) and acceleration (a).
F = m · a
It is given:
mc = 1000 kg
mt = 2000 kg
total force: F = 4500 N
total mass: m = mc + mt
Let's calculate acceleration which is common:
a = F/m = F/(mc + mt) = 4500/(1000 + 2000) = 4500/3000 = 1.5 m/s²
Now, when we know acceleration, let's calculate force on the truck:
Ft = mt · a = 2000 · 1.5 = 3000 N
