Find the magnitude of the force that the car exerts on truck

Reference no: EM13315491

A 1260 kg car pushes a 2140 kg truck that has a dead battery. When the driver steps on the accelerator, the drive wheels of the car push against the ground with a force of 4480N Take the friction between the truck's tires and the ground to be 455 N.

What is the magnitude of the force that the car exerts on the truck?
