Interesting Facts About Force and Acceleration

Force and acceleration are directly proportional to each other according to Newton's second law of motion. This law states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. Mathematically, the relationship can be expressed as:

Newton's Second Law of Motion:

F = m a

Where:

F = Net force acting on the object (in Newtons)

m = Mass of the object (in kilograms)

a = Acceleration of the object (in meters per second squared)

Therefore, the greater the force applied to an object, the greater its acceleration will be, given a constant mass.
