Question

a semi - truck and a motorcycle are at a red light and when the light turns green they both start moving. the motorcycle accelerates to the speed limit of 45 mph easily but the semi - truck takes a lot more force to get its mass to the speed limit. which of newtons laws does this represent? newtons 1st law newtons 2nd law newtons 3rd law

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Newton's 2nd law states that force equals mass times acceleration ($F = ma$). The semi - truck has more mass, so more force is needed to achieve the same acceleration as the motorcycle to reach the speed limit.

Answer:

B. Newton's 2nd Law
