Newton's Laws - Mission NL7 Detailed Help


The acceleration of an object is ______ proportional to the net force and ______ proportional to its mass.


 
Newton's Second Law
The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.


 
The relationship between net force (Fnet), mass (m) and acceleration (a) is expressed by the equation
 
a = Fnet/ m
