Yes. It just has to be remembered that the equation is describing a balance between
a force and the increment of momentum of the system per time unit on which the force is being applied "at a given instant t".
For a given system with constant mass m, we can write Newton's 2nd law of motion
as:
F(t) = m∙a(t)
where force F(t) and acceleration a(t) are a function of time (notice that if the force
is constant during time applied, acceleration results constant or uniform).
If you know how the force is varying in time (function F(t)), then you know the
function of acceleration in time: a(t) = F(t)/m

What is the equation for newtons second law of motion?
F = ma Force is equal to mass times acceleration.
Will equation of motion be valid for non uniform motion?
Newton's first law of motion states that momentum is a property of a mass system that is conserved as long as no net force is applied on it. If the question refers to Newton's second law of motion, the answer is yes.
Newtons second law of motion deals with?
acceleration
How can second equation of motion is reduced to first equation of motion?
let a Body moving with initial velocity 'u' changes its velocity to 'v' in time 't' then , acceleration 'a' = (v-u)/t => a * t = v - u => a * t + u = v => v = u + a * t
What is nweton first equation of motion?
the first equation of motion is v=u+at the second equation of motion is s=ut+1/2 at2 the third equation of motion is 2as=v2-u2
What equation supports the second law of motion?
F=Ma Force=mass times acceleration
What is the equation to find acceleration of an object moving in a straight line?
It is the second derivative of its distance from a fixed point on the line, with respect to time. There is nothing in the question which entitles you to assume that the acceleration is uniform.
What is the equation for newtons second law of motion?
F = ma Force is equal to mass times acceleration.
What is newton's second law on motion?
Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of a body is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. So the greater the net force, the greater the acceleration, and the smaller the mass, the greater the acceleration. a = F/m This equation is often written as F = ma.

A ball is dropped and its motion recorded It is found that the increase in speed is uniform for each second it falls Which inference do these observations support?
If the increase in speed is uniform, this means that the slope of the function of speed over time is constant. This means that acceleration is constant.
What is the example where acceleration is either uniform or non uniform?
If the graph of speed versus time is a straight line, then the acceleration is constant/uniform. If the graph is curved or has a sharp corner, the acceleration is non-uniform, i.e. not constant. A uniform acceleration means the speed changes by fixed amount every unit of time, e.g. +3 m/s every second.

How are force mass and acceleration are related by newtons second law of motion?
Force=mass*acceleration
The calculation of mass x acceleration applies to which of newtons law of motion?
Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of a system is directly proportional to and in the same direction as the net external force acting on the system, and inversely proportional to its mass.so the answer is Newton's second law of motion. gimme a good raction plz
