A sports car and a fully loaded semi truck pull side by side at a red light. Using your knowledge of acceleration, predict which will accelerate faster when the traffic light turns green. Cite reasons for your answer.
The sports car. Acceleration will use the formula force over mass. This is ewual to the weight of the thing. The greater the weight, the lesser the car to accelerate due to its mass. So the sports car will accelerate more than the truck.
