Describe an example of Newton's 2nd Law of Motion (heavier objects need more force than lighter objects to make them move).​

But in more basic terms-Newtons second law states that when a constant force acts on a massive body, it causes it to accelerate, i.e., to change its velocity, at a constant rate. In the simplest case, a force applied to an object at rest causes it to accelerate in the direction of the force.
