A crate of mass m(=32 kg) rides on the bed of a truck attached by a cord to the back of the cab . The cord can withstand a maximum tension of 68N before breaking. Neglecting friction between the crate and the truck bed, find the maximum acceleration the truck can have before the cord breaks.

a = F/M = 68/32 = 2.125 m/s^2.
a=f/m
68/32= 2.12 m/s^2
68/32= 2.12 m/s^2
