Study Notes
Forces and Newton's Second Law
- The Newton (N) is the SI unit of force.
- The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it, and inversely proportional to its mass.
- Force is a vector quantity, which means it has both magnitude and direction.
- A force is a push or pull that causes an object to change its motion or shape.
- Newton's second law states that the net force acting on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration.
- The acceleration of an object changes when the net force acting on it changes.
