What is the second law of Issac Newton?

Physics

 The second law explains how the velocity of an object changes when it is subjected to an external force. The law defines a force to be equal to change in momentum (mass times velocity) per change in time. Newton also developed the calculus of mathematics, and the "changes" expressed in the second law are most accurately defined in differential forms. (Calculus can also be used to determine the velocity and location variations experienced by an object subjected to an external force.) For an object with a constant mass m, the second law states that the force F is the product of an object's mass and its acceleration a: 

F = m * a

The second law states that the greater the mass of an object, the more force it will take to accelerate the object. There is even an equation that says Force = mass x acceleration or F=ma

If an object undergoes a change in momentum of 10 kg m/s in 3 s ,then the force acting on it is
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Force = 3.333 Newton

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Change in momentum = 10 Kgm/s

Time = 3 seconds

To find the force acting on it;

In Physics, the change in momentum of a physical object is equal to the impulse experienced by the physical object.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Force * time = mass * change in velocity

Impulse = force * time

Substituting into the formula, we have;

10 = force * 3

Force = 10/3

Force = 3.333 Newton

What happens when an object experiences friction?
kaheart [24]

Answer:Whenever a moving object experiences friction, some of its kinetic energy is transformed into thermal energy. Mechanical energy is always transformed into thermal energy due to friction. Mechanical energy is always transformed into thermal energy due to friction.

Explanation:

Whenever a moving object experiences friction, some of its kinetic energy is transformed into thermal energy. Mechanical energy is always transformed into thermal energy due to friction. Mechanical energy is always transformed into thermal energy due to friction.

Explain how work is related to energy
Dahasolnce [82]

Work is closely related to energy. The work-energy principle states that an increase in the kinetic energy of a rigid body is caused by an equal amount of positive work.


So they are both closely related to each other.
