Newton's second law

What does Newton's Second Law of Motion state?

• The acceleration of an object depends on the force applied to it and its mass.

• Objects at rest stay at rest unless acted upon by a force.

• For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

• The speed of an object is proportional to its mass.

Which formula represents Newton's Second Law of Motion?

• F = m × a

• F = m ÷ a

• F = a ÷ m

• F = m + a

What happens when a heavier object is pushed with the same force as a lighter object?

• The heavier object accelerates less.

• The heavier object accelerates more.

• Both objects accelerate equally.

• The lighter object does not accelerate.

In the example of kicking a soccer ball and a bowling ball, why does the soccer ball move faster?

• It has less mass.

• It has more mass.

• It receives more force.

• It is rounder.

Why is Newton's Second Law important in real life?

• It helps design safer cars.

• It explains the law of gravity.

• It describes the shape of objects.

• It predicts the weather.
