 Given:
Initial speed of the three-wheeler,
Final speed of the three-wheeler, m/s
Time, s
Mass of the three-wheeler, kg
Mass of the driver, kg
Total mass of the system, kg
Using the first law of motion, the acceleration (a) of the three-wheeler can be calculated as:

The negative sign indicates that the velocity of the three-wheeler is decreasing with time.

Using Newton's second law of motion, the net force acting on the three-wheeler can be calculated as:
The negative sign indicates that the force is acting against the direction of motion of the three-wheeler.
