F=MA Formula

Front

What does the formula F=MA represent?

Back

The formula represents Newton's second law of motion, which states that the force (F) acting on an object is equal to the mass (M) of the object multiplied by its acceleration (A).

Front

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

Back

The unit of force is the Newton (N).

Front

How do you calculate force using mass and acceleration?

Back

Force is calculated by multiplying mass (in kilograms) by acceleration (in meters per second squared): F = M × A.

Front

If an object has a mass of 10 kg and accelerates at 2 m/s², what is the force applied?

Back

20 N (calculated as F = 10 kg × 2 m/s²).

Front

What is the relationship between mass, acceleration, and force?

Back

The relationship is direct; as mass increases, for a constant force, acceleration decreases, and vice versa.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object, measured in meters per second squared (m/s²).

Front

If a force of 50 N is applied to a 5 kg object, what is its acceleration?

Back

10 m/s² (calculated as A = F/M = 50 N / 5 kg).

Front

What happens to the acceleration of an object if the mass is doubled while the force remains constant?

Back

The acceleration is halved, as A = F/M.

Front

What is the mass of an object if a force of 100 N results in an acceleration of 4 m/s²?

Back

25 kg (calculated as M = F/A = 100 N / 4 m/s²).

Front

What is the formula to find acceleration?

Back

Acceleration can be found using the formula A = F/M.
