In terms of Newton's 2nd law of motion, what happens to the acceleration of an object when the force acting on it increases?
In terms of Newton's 2nd law of motion, what happens to the acceleration of an object when the force acting on it increases?
- Acceleration becomes zero
- Acceleration increases (correct)
- Acceleration decreases
- Acceleration remains constant
According to Newton's 2nd law of motion, what is the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration?
According to Newton's 2nd law of motion, what is the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration?
- Force is directly proportional to acceleration and inversely proportional to mass (correct)
- Force is directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to acceleration
- Force is directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to acceleration
- Force is directly proportional to mass and acceleration
How does Newton's 2nd law of motion relate to the concept of inertia?
How does Newton's 2nd law of motion relate to the concept of inertia?
- Newton's 2nd law explains that inertia depends on the acceleration of an object
- Newton's 2nd law defines inertia as the resistance to changes in motion (correct)
- Newton's 2nd law describes inertia as the product of force and mass
- Newton's 2nd law states that inertia is directly proportional to the force applied
Study Notes
Newton's 2nd Law of Motion
- When the force acting on an object increases, its acceleration also increases.
- The relationship between force, mass, and acceleration is described by the equation: F = ma (force equals mass times acceleration).
- The law relates to the concept of inertia, which is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion.
