    This document discusses Newtonian dynamics and concepts related to the motion of vehicles. It includes the following key points: 1) Question 12a asks about forces on an accelerating lorry and the relationship between acceleration, mass, and unbalanced force. The unbalanced forward force F on the lorry is larger than the backward force B. Acceleration is directly proportional to net force and inversely proportional to mass. 2) Question 12b explains that a lorry can be accelerating even if its speed stays the same if it is changing direction. 3) Question 12c lists factors that increase thinking distance, like driver distraction, and factors that increase braking distance, like wet road conditions.

    12. (a) The diagram shows a lorry. It is travelling in a straight line and it is accelerating. The
    total forward force on the lorry is F and the total backward force is B.

    (i) Explain which is larger, force F or force B.

    (iii) An unbalanced force of 15 000 N acts on the lorry. The mass of the lorry is
    12 500 kg. Calculate the lorrys acceleration and give the unit.

    (c) The thinking distance is the distance which a vehicle travels in the drivers reaction
    time. The braking distance is the distance which a vehicle travels when the brakes
    are on.
