What is the formula for calculating the force acting on an object according to Newton's second law of motion?.
- A.F = m / a
- B.F = m x a
- C.F = a / m
- D.F = m + a
Model answer
What a good answer should say
- F = m x a
Explanation
Why this works
According to Newton's second law of motion, the force acting on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration. This relationship is fundamental in understanding how forces affect motion.
