F=MA

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

F = MA (Force = Mass x Acceleration)

Front

What does 'M' represent in the equation F = MA?

Back

M represents mass, which is the amount of matter in an object.

Front

What does 'A' represent in the equation F = MA?

Back

A represents acceleration, which is the rate of change of velocity of an object.

Front

What is the unit of force in the International System of Units (SI)?

Back

The unit of force is the Newton (N).

Front

If an object has a mass of 10 kg and is accelerating at 2 m/s², what is the force acting on it?

Back

F = MA = 10 kg x 2 m/s² = 20 N.

Front

Does gravity affect all objects equally?

Back

No, gravity affects objects differently based on their mass and distance from the center of the Earth.

Front

What is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth?

Back

The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is approximately 9.81 m/s².

Front

If a force of 100 N is applied to an object with a mass of 25 kg, what is its acceleration?

Back

A = F/M = 100 N / 25 kg = 4 m/s².

Front

What is the relationship between mass and acceleration in the context of force?

Back

As mass increases, for a constant force, acceleration decreases.

Front

What is inertia?

Back

Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.
