Q

What is Net Force

A

Net force is the vector sum of all the forces acting on an object. If the forces are balanced and not moving. If the forces are unbalanced, the net force is not zero, and the object is in motion

Q

What is the relationship between mass, force and accleration? Which law is that.

A

Dependign on how much force is applied and how much mass it has, it will have more or less acceleration. More mass, less acceleration, more force, more aceleration.
