Answer:

The force must increase

Step-by-step explanation:

According to newton's second law "force is the product of mass and acceleration".

Force = mass x acceleration

Now, the mass of the sports car is lesser compared to that of the truck. Therefore, to take both automobiles to the same speed, enough force must be applied by the engine of the truck.

There must be an increase in the force in order to make both automobiles attain the same speed.
