(F=ma, Force=mass X acceleration)
Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object and the amount of force applied. This explains why some people can swim faster than others. For example, if two people have the same mass and pushed off a wall and did not take any strokes, the person who used the most force pushing off the wall goes farther. Acceleration in this case was greater for the person who produced the greater force because the masses were equal to each other. Take the same two people and have them race to the other side of the pool the person who wins the race would have to create more force the whole time in order to maintain the lead. Greater force produced by a person with smaller mass will have the largest acceleration.

How does force relate to newtons second law?
Newton's second law is represented by the equation F = ma, which indicates that force is directly proportional to mass and acceleration.
How does newtons second law of motion relate to life?
if you know the mass, acceleration or Fnet or two of those three you can apply it to life
What is the equation to represent the newtons second law?
F=ma Input: newtons second law at wolframalpha.com
When would you use newtons second law?
No
As newtons first law is the part of newtons second law then why you study newtons first law?
Its a matter of being scientifically rigorous. You can not claim the 2nd law as a law unless you first establish the first law.
Newtons second law of motion deals with?
acceleration
Why is Newtons Second Law important to us?
its not importsnt
Why do you have to divide the two formulas in newtons second law of motion?
This is because two concepts are derived from the newtons second law. First : Force . F = m * a Second : momentum .. p = m * v
How does Newtons second law relate to speedometers?
on a push bike, you provide the force, and this produces acceleration (velocity change), in the form acceleration = force/mass a speedometer measures instant velocity
Which one of newtons laws does magneto illustrate?
the second law
Who invented newtons second law of motion?
The clue is in the question.
Which of newtons laws is illustrated by a squid moving forward by shooting water out behind it why?
Newtons second law
