Question

Forcé vs mass graph slope

Answer 1

The slope of a force vs mass graph is equal to the acceleration.

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using Newton's second law, which states that:

$F=ma$ (1)

where:

F is the net force on an object

m is the mass of the object

a is its acceleration

We notice that if we plot a graph of force vs mass,

- The mass corresponds to the x-variable

- The force corresponds to the y-variable

For a straight line passing through the origin, the equation is

$y=mx$ (2)

Where m is the slope of the line. We notice that eq.(1) and (2) are identical if we replace x with m (mass) and y with F (force): therefore, the slope m corresponds to the acceleration, a.
