What is Newton's second law of motion?
|
The acceleration of an object is realted to the net force acting on it and the mass of the object.
|
|
|
What is the calculation of force?
|
Force = Mass times Acceleration; F = m x a
|
|
|
What is the unit for acceleration?
|
m/s squared (meters per second squared)
|
|
|
What is a Newton?
|
The amount of force required to accelerate one kg of mass one meter per second every second.
