Newton's Second Law of Motion
Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the force acting on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration:
* F = m * a
Where:
* F is the force (in Newtons, N)
* m is the mass (in kilograms, kg)
* a is the acceleration (in meters per second squared, m/s²)
Applying the Formula
1. Mass (m): 1000 kg
2. Acceleration (a): 10 m/s²
3. Force (F): F = 1000 kg * 10 m/s² = 10,000 N
Therefore, the force applied to the vehicle is 10,000 Newtons.
