Force, Mass, Acceleration (Flashcardizz)

According to Newton's second law of motion, force (F) is equal to mass (m) multiplied by acceleration (a). This is expressed as F = m × a.

The object will stay at rest or continue to move at a constant velocity. This is known as the principle of inertia.

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, typically measured in kilograms (kg). It is a scalar quantity and does not change regardless of the object's location.

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

Force is a push or pull acting upon an object, measured in newtons (N). It can cause an object to accelerate, decelerate, or change direction.

Force can be calculated using the formula F = m × a, where F is force, m is mass, and a is acceleration.

The unit of force is the newton (N).

Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion. An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by a net external force.

Balanced forces are equal in size and opposite in direction, resulting in no change in motion of the object.

Unbalanced forces are not equal and can cause an object to accelerate or change its motion.
