March 21, 2011 What is the acceleration of a car that pulls away from a stop light and reaches 60 m/s in 5 s? What is the acceleration of a car that has a net force of 48,000 N and a mass of 4000 kg
Newton’s 2nd Law Relationships Means multiply Means divide F m a Constant *** If two variables do the same thing, they are DIRECTLY related *** If two variables do opposite things, they are INVERSELY related
If the force doubles and the mass remains the same, the acceleration will….. If the mass triples and the force remains the same, the acceleration will….
