Second Law Of Motion: Law Of Acceleration Flashcards
The second law of motion is also known as?
LAW OF ACCELERATION
Newton’s Second Law of Motion states:
THE MAGNITUDE OF THE ACCELERATION IS DIRECTLY PROPORTIONAL TO THE MAGNITUDE OF THE NET FORCE AND INVERSELY PROPORTIONAL TO THE MASS OF THE OBJECT.
Mass is inversely proportional to acceleration, meaning:
THE MORE MASS POSSESSED BY THE OBJECT THE LOWER THE ACCELERATION.
The net force and acceleration are directly proportional, meaning:
THE HIGHER THE NET FORCE ACTING ON THE OBJECT, THE MORE IT WILL ACCELERATE.
Refers to the change in speed or direction of the movement or change in velocity due to the exerted force.
