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

If a 50 kg object accelerates at 5 m/s², what is the force applied?

Back

250 N (calculated using F=MA: F=50 kg * 5 m/s²).

Front

How do you calculate acceleration using force and mass?

Back

Acceleration (A) can be calculated using the formula A = F/M, where F is the force applied and M is the mass of the object.

Front

What is the acceleration of a 1000 kg car pushed with a force of 3000 N?

Back

3 m/s² (calculated using A = F/M: A = 3000 N / 1000 kg).

Front

What is the mass of an object if a force of 20 N causes an acceleration of 4 m/s²?

Back

5 kg (calculated using M = F/A: M = 20 N / 4 m/s²).

Front

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

Back

The acceleration decreases, as acceleration is inversely proportional to mass when force is constant.

Front

If a net force of 32 N is applied to a 5 kg block, what is the acceleration?

Back

6.4 m/s² (calculated using A = F/M: A = 32 N / 5 kg).

Front

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

Back

Force is directly proportional to acceleration and mass; if mass increases, acceleration decreases for a constant force.

Front

What is the formula to find force if mass and acceleration are known?

Back

F = M * A.
