Question

which statements are true according to newtons second law? select all that apply. a. acceleration is inversely proportional to mass. b. acceleration is directly proportional to mass. c. acceleration is inversely proportional to force. d. acceleration is directly proportional to force. e. acceleration is unrelated to force.

Explanation:

Newton's Second Law is $F = ma$, which can be rewritten as $a=\frac{F}{m}$. From this formula, acceleration $a$ is directly proportional to force $F$ (when $m$ is constant) and inversely proportional to mass $m$ (when $F$ is constant).

Answer:

A. Acceleration is inversely proportional to mass.
D. Acceleration is directly proportional to force.
