What is the relationship between a body's acceleration, mass, and net force according to Newton's second law of motion?
What is the relationship between a body's acceleration, mass, and net force according to Newton's second law of motion?
- Acceleration plus mass equals net force
- Acceleration divided by mass equals net force
- Acceleration multiplied by mass equals net force (correct)
- Acceleration minus mass equals net force

According to Newton's first law of motion, what happens to a body in the absence of a force?
- It decelerates until it stops
- It changes direction randomly
- It remains at rest or continues at a constant speed in a straight line (correct)
- It accelerates indefinitely
