Newton's second law of motion states that if there is a net force acting on an object, the object accelerates in the direction of the force. The larger the force acting on an object, the greater the acceleration of the object. The greater the mass of the object, the greater the force needed to accelerate it. Newton's second law can be expressed in this equation: F=ma where F= force m= mass a= acceleration example: How much force is needed to accelerate a 50-kg object by 5 m/s2? solution: Given: m=50 kg a=5 m/s2 Find:F use the equation: F= ma = (50 kg)(5 m/s2) =250 N

What is newtons third law of motion called?
Newton's third law of motion is that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. This law is also called reciprocal motion/force or "action-reaction."
