2nd and 3rd Law of motion Flashcards
1
Q
second law
A
how an object’s acceleration is affected by its mass and the net force acting on it.
F = ma
2
Q
relation between acceleration and force
A
acceleration is directly proportional to force
acceleration is inversely proportional to mass
3
Q
mass
A
amount of matter in an object in kg
4
Q
weight
A
is the force of gravity acting on an object, measured in newtons
5
Q
newtons 3rd law
A
every action force has an equal and opposite reaction force
the action and reaction force act on different objects, allowing both objects to accelerate
