Q

example for newtons first law

A

if there is a ball on the ground without any unbalanced force the object is stationary

earth revolves around the sun at a uniform velocity because there is no unbalanced force

Q

what is the relationship between magnitude and acceleration?

A

when the magnitude of unbalanced force increases, the acceleration also increases this is called acceleration is directly proportional to the unbalanced force.

Q

what is the relationship between mass and acceleration?

A

when the mass of the object increases, acceleration decreases this is called as acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass
