Question
magnitude and direction of force quick check what is force directly proportional to? (1 point) the acceleration and mass of an object the acceleration and weight of an object the acceleration and speed of an object the velocity and mass of an object
According to Newton's second law of motion, the formula is \( F = ma \), where \( F \) is force, \( m \) is mass, and \( a \) is acceleration. This shows that force (\( F \)) is directly proportional to the mass (\( m \)) and acceleration (\( a \)) of an object. Weight is the force due to gravity (\( W = mg \)), speed is a scalar quantity related to velocity's magnitude, and velocity is related to acceleration but not in the direct proportionality for force as per the law. So the correct option is the one with acceleration and mass.
