Best Answer

force on ground = mass * acceleration due to gravity (approx 9.82 (m/s)/s at earths surface)

say truck mass = 10,000 kg

then: 10,000 * 9.82 = 98,200 newtons acting down

equaling this with upward force of 98,200 newtons = weightless truck

anything greater than this force = upward acceleration (lifting)
