No. I assume you mean Newton's Second Law; this law - in the form it is commonly teached in schools - states that F=ma. Assuming mass is constant, that would make force proportional to acceleration - not to velocity. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.

Is velocity proportional to force with respect to newton's laws of motion?

No, not at all. As long as a constant force is applied, the velocity can continue to grow or shrink.


If you exert a force on an object in motion you will change its .?

Velocity.


What is the relationship between centripetal force and velocity in circular motion?

In circular motion, centripetal force is the force that keeps an object moving in a circle. The centripetal force is directly proportional to the velocity of the object in circular motion. This means that as the velocity of the object increases, the centripetal force required to keep it moving in a circle also increases.


What happend to centripetal force if the velocity doubles?

If the velocity of an object doubles, the centripetal force required to keep it in circular motion also doubles. This is because centripetal force is directly proportional to the square of the velocity.


Factors that affect tha increase of centripetal force in uniform circular motion?

Centripetal force increases with an increase in the speed or radius of the circular motion. It is inversely proportional to the radius of the circle and directly proportional to the square of the velocity. Generally, any factor that increases the velocity or decreases the radius will increase the centripetal force.


What results when a force moves an object?

When a force acts on an object and moves it, the object will experience a change in velocity. This change in velocity is described by Newton's second law of motion, which states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the force applied and inversely proportional to the object's mass.


What are the 2 conclusions that make up newtons first law of motion?

An object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will remain in motion at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force. The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass.


What is the law of velocity?

The law of velocity refers to Newton's second law of motion, which states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the force acting on it, and inversely proportional to its mass. This can be mathematically expressed as F = ma, where F is the force applied, m is the mass of the object, and a is the resulting acceleration.


What is the relationship between the velocity of an whirling object and the centripetal force that is exerted on it?

The velocity of a whirling object is directly proportional to the centripetal force exerted on it. As the object moves faster, the centripetal force required to keep it in circular motion increases. The equation for centripetal force is Fc = (mv^2)/r, where m is mass, v is velocity, and r is the radius of circular motion.


When a force on an object increases how does the object's acceleration change?

All objects possess the characteristic we refer to as mass. Mass is a measure of an object's natural resistance to any force applied to it. An object may be considered as having a velocity with respect to a given reference frame. This velocity can take any value from zero to just under the speed of light. If an object experiences an applied force, that force will cause the object's velocity to change. The change is at a rate and direction that is absolutely dependant on the direction of the applied force with respect to the original direction of motion of the object. If the applied force increases then so does the rate of change of velocity. If the force and any increase is applied in a direction with the motion of the object, the result is a positive acceleration, causing an increase of speed - or velocity. If the force and any increase of that force is applied in a direction opposing the original motion of the particle, this results in a negative acceleration resulting in a decrease in the objects speed - or velocity.


What are newtons famous three laws of motion?

An object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force. The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.


Is an object's velocity always proportional to the force acting on it at that instant?

Not necessarily. An object's velocity can depend on various factors, including inertia, mass, and the net force acting on it. While an increase in force can lead to an increase in velocity, other factors can also influence an object's motion.
