Question

Jerome has a tow truck, and he is in charge of moving several vehicles for the city. He wants to explain to his niece how towing vehicles relates to Newton's second law. Which statement should he use?

Answer 1

Force = mass x acceleration

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Newton's second law, the net force acting on the object is proportional to the rate of change of momentum of the body.

So, Force is given by

F = m a

where, F is the force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

when the mass is more, the acceleration is less as the force applied by the truck is same.
