Question

In which equation of Newton’s second law is mass assumed to be constant?

a) (F = ma)

b) (F = frac{dp}{dt})

c) (F = frac{Delta p}{Delta t})

d) (F = m frac{dv}{dt})

Answer 1

Newton's second law equation with constant mass is F = ma.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of Newton's second law in which mass is assumed to be constant is F = ma. This equation states that the net force (F) acting on an object is equal to the product of its mass (m) and acceleration (a). When mass is constant, the force and acceleration are directly proportional to each other.
