Study Notes
Newton's Second Law of Motion
- Newton's Second Law of Motion describes the relationship between the force acting on a body and the resulting acceleration.
- The force acting on an object is equal to the product of its mass and acceleration.
- Mathematically, Newton's Second Law is expressed as F = ma, where F is the force, m is the object's mass, and a is the acceleration produced.
- The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force applied in the same direction as the force.
- The acceleration of an object is inversely proportional to the object's mass.
