Question
two brothers are moving 100 pound boxes. one brother is 14 and is on the football team. the other brother is only 9. the older brother is able to get the box to accelerate easy by adding lots of force. the younger brother is having a lot of trouble getting the mass to accelerate since he cant put as much force on the box. which law does this represent? newtons 3rd law newtons 1st law newtons 2nd law
Newton's 2nd law states that force equals mass times acceleration ($F = ma$). Here, the mass of the box is constant, and the difference in the ability to accelerate it is due to the different forces applied by the two brothers.
