How does the direction of acceleration compare with the direction of the net force that produces it?

Acceleration is proportional to net force.
That means that acceleration is equal to (net force) times (something).
The 'something' is [ 1 / (the mass of the object being accelerated by the force) ].

Wiki User
∙ 14y agoThe acceleration can be calculated by Newton's Second Law of motion: F = ma; net force = mass times acceleration. Solviing for acceleration gives a = F/m.

How do you compare the direction of your partners and your force?
How do you compare the direction of your partner's and your force?
An unbalanced force produces?
An unbalanced force produces acceleration, in accordance with Newton's very basic formula, force equals mass times acceleration.
What affects the acceleration of an object?
An object's acceleration is the result of a force being applied to it. When that happens, the magnitude of the resulting acceleration is equal to the force divided by the object's mass, and the direction of the acceleration is in the direction of the force.
What force produces acceleration?
Any unbalanced force will cause an acceleration.
What kind of force produces a constant acceleration?
a constant force.
What results when a force produces a movement in the direction of the force?
'Acceleration' in that direction results.

How are constant force is related to mass and acceleration?
Force = (mass) times (acceleration) Constant force produces constant acceleration.
An unbalanced force produces?
An unbalanced force produces acceleration, in accordance with Newton's very basic formula, force equals mass times acceleration.
What affects the acceleration of an object?
An object's acceleration is the result of a force being applied to it. When that happens, the magnitude of the resulting acceleration is equal to the force divided by the object's mass, and the direction of the acceleration is in the direction of the force.
A horizontal force acts a body that is free to move can it produce an acceleration if the force is less then the weight of that body?
Yes it can, and if less force is needed if you eliminate the possibility of friction. You can find many examples of this, but i think this is an excellent opportunity to devise an experiment and practice your scientific methods.
What force produces acceleration?
Any unbalanced force will cause an acceleration.
The overall net force acting on an object produces?
in the same direction as the net force, directly proportional to it, and inversely proportional to the object's mass.
What kind of force produces a constant acceleration?
a constant force.
What is the relationship between an object's acceleration and the direction of the force on the object?
If an object is increasing in speed, the acceleration is positive and the force is in the direction of travel. If the object is slowing down, the acceleration is negative and the force is acting against the direction of movement.
What is the ratio of force to acceleration?
The ratio is the M/cos(x). where M is the mass on which the force is acting and x is the angle between the direction of the force and the direction of the acceleration.
How are acceleration and net force alike?
They are both vector quantities and acceleration is in the direction of the net force.
