Answer:

[tex]a_2=3.88m/s^2[/tex]

Explanation:

From the Question we are told that:

Initial Mass [tex]m_1=1300kg[/tex]

Final mass [tex]m_2=1300+400=>1700kg[/tex]

[tex]a_1=3.0m/s^2[/tex]

Generally the equation for  Force  is mathematically given by

 [tex]F=m_1a_1[/tex]

 [tex]F=1300*5[/tex]

 [tex]F=6500N[/tex]

Generally the equation for Final acceleration  is mathematically given by

 [tex]F'=m_2*a_2[/tex]

 [tex]a_2=\frac{6500}{1700}[/tex]

 [tex]a_2=3.88m/s^2[/tex]
