1.

What is the equation which relates acceleration, force and mass?

a)

Force = mass / acceleration

b)

Acceleration = force x mass

c)

Force = mass x acceleration

d)

Force = mass + acceleration

2.

Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is proportional to the (a)   acting on the object.

3.

Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of an object is inversely proportional to its (a)   .
