Forces and acceleration

Question 1

what is acceleration

Answer 1

measure of how quickly it speeds down, slows down or changes direction
- gradient is used to find the acceleration

Question 2

what is the equation for acceleration

Answer 2

acceleration(m/s^2) = final - initial velocity(m/s) / time taken (s)

Question 3

state newtons second law

Answer 3

An objects acceleration is directly proportional to the resultant force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass

Question 4

what is the equation for force

Answer 4

force(N) = mass(kg) x acceleration(m/s^2)

Question 5

what is inertial mass

Answer 5

describes how difficult its to change an objects velocity
given by ratio of force over acceleration
