What is true meaning of the law of acceleration?

If you mean Newton's 2nd law which states that a force causes a mass to accelerate.

Acceleration measures how fast your velocity changes.

I will give you an example.

If you know a child with a wagon, this could be fun. The child is sitting on the wagon. Right now the child is at rest (velocity =0). He does not like being at rest, so he asks you to push him. As you push him he giggles, oh what fun. He is now moving (v = 6 m/s, not 0). Your friend said, "Do that again, and I will time how many seconds it takes for you to get him going that fast." It took 2 seconds for you to reach a velocity of 6 m/s. That means you were accelerating at a rate of 3 m/s each second.

When you push the wagon, you exert a force, which causes the child and wagon to accelerate.

Newton's 2nd law states that a force causes a mass to accelerate

1) Your push is the force.

2) The child and wagon are the mass.

3) The acceleration is the result.

As a formula, Force = mass * acceleration

I hope this helps

True of false The acceleration of an object is inversely proportional to the net force acting on it?

False. The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it. Newton's 2nd Law: F = ma where F is the force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration. __________________________________________________ The acceleration of a body is "inversely" proportional to its mass.


How can nawtons first law be derived from newtons second law?

The Second Law is Force = Mass times Acceleration. The First Law can be derived from the Second Law by setting the Focre to zero or the Acceleration to zero;. No force = no acceleration; or No acceleration = no force.
