8.9 Newton's Second Law of Motion Test (GL)

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. It can be expressed with the formula: F = m * a.

The formula to calculate force is F = m * a, where F is force, m is mass, and a is acceleration.

Force is measured in Newtons (N).

Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, typically measured in kilograms (kg).

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object, measured in meters per second squared (m/s²).

The object with the smaller mass will accelerate more when pushed with the same force, according to Newton's Second Law.

True.

The relationship is defined by Newton's Second Law: Force equals mass times acceleration (F = m * a).

The force applied is 30 N (calculated using F = m * a).

If the mass increases while the force remains constant, the acceleration decreases.
