Question

Select the correct answer.

Which formula describes Newton's second law of motion?
OA force = mass x acceleration
rn abs
OB. force =
acceleration
Ос, force = mass x velocity
OD force =
velocity
mass

Answer 1

The correct answer describes Newton's second law of motion : A. Force = mass x acceleration (F=m.a)

Further explanation

Newton's 2nd law states that :

the acceleration from the applied force is proportional to the resultant force and inversely proportional to the mass

Can be formulated

`\tt a=(F)/(m)`

or

`\tt F=m* a`

F = force, N

m = mass, kg

a = acceleration, m/s²
