Question
exit ticket - 2.05 newtons second law of motion (10/7)
what is the meaning of this scientific model?
force
acceleration
force
acceleration
the same force applied to a heavier object will cause less acceleration to occur.
you must apply more force to a heavier object to have it accelerate the same.
it takes less force to accelerate a lighter object.
all the above are true
Newton's second - law is $F = ma$ (force equals mass times acceleration). When force $F$ is constant, a larger mass $m$ results in a smaller acceleration $a$. To achieve the same acceleration for a heavier (larger mass) object, more force is needed. Also, it takes less force to accelerate a lighter (smaller mass) object.
