Q

newtons second law of motion in terms of motion

A

the net (or resultant) force acting on an object is equal to the rate of change of momentum of the object in the direction of the net force.

Fnet= m.a
Fnet= m.delta /delta t
Fnet= delta p/ delta t

change in momentum over change in time ( rate of change in momentum)
