Lesson 18 Newton’s second Law
Review What is Newton’s first law of motion? An object at rest will stay at rest An object with a constant velocity will stay at that velocity UNLESS acted on by an unequal force

Newton’s second law What does this mean? Acceleration is produced when a force acts on a mass. The greater the mass the greater the amount of force needed. What does this mean? Heavier objects require more force to move the same distance as lighter objects.
Relationship between force, mass, and acceleration F=MxA Newton’s second law Relationship between force, mass, and acceleration F=MxA https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=iwP4heWDhvw
Newton’s second law Mike's car, which weighs 1,000 kg, is out of gas. Mike is trying to push the car to a gas station, and he makes the car go 0.05 m/s2. Using Newton's Second Law, you can compute how much force Mike is applying to the car. Mass = 1000 kg Acceleration = 0.05 m/s2 F=MxA 1000 kg x 0.05 m/s2 F=50 newtons
Students Should be Able to: What is Newton’s second Law? What is the equation to calculate Force?
