Question

Define Newton's Second Law

Answer 1

Answer:

$F_{net} = ma$

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force exerted on it, according to the formula:

$F_{net} = ma$

where

$F_{net}$ is the net force on the object

m is its mass

a is its acceleration

The other statements are wrong because they represent other laws of physics, namely:

When an object puts a force on another object, the second object puts a force back on the first, equal in magnitude but opposite in direction  --> Newton's third law

The total energy through any process is conserved  --> law of conservation of energy

Objects tend to keep their motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced outside force --> Newton's first law
