To calculate the acceleration of the truck, we use the equation of motion

[tex]v = u + at[/tex]

Here, v is final velocity of the truck, u is initial velocity of truck, a is acceleration of the truck and t is time taken.

Given,  u = 6 m/s, v = 14 m/s and t = 4 s.

Substituting these values in above equation, we get

[tex]14 \ m/s = 6 \ m/s + a \times 4 \ s \\\\  a = \frac{14 \ m/s - 6 \ m/s}{ 4 \ s } =  2 \ m /s^2[/tex].

Thus,  the truck acceleration is [tex]2 \ m /s^2[/tex]
