A car merges onto a freeway, accelerating from \(60 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}\) to \(80 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}\). As it does this, a bus passes by in the fast lane, travelling at a constant \(100 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}\). Which vehicle has the greater magnitude of the vector sum of forces acting on it?
