By definition, if two things are proportional to one and other, they are connected by a multiplying constant.
If F = m + a you would simple say F is a bigger than m and it would also require that force, mass and acceleration all shared the same dimensions and units. Clearly mass is a scalar and force and acceleration are vectors, so that is not the case. Also, if they shared the same dimensions, they would effectively be the same thing so F = m + a would be the same as F(total) = F(1) + F(2) which wouldn't tell us very much about the laws of physics at all.
Also, you don't say force is proportional to mass times acceleration (it's EQUAL to mass times acceleration). It's either force is proportional to mass (in which case acceleration is the factor of proportionality) or force is proportional to acceleration (in which case it is mass).
What else can I help you with?
Is acceleration directly proportional to mass?
Acceleration is directly proportional to the net force. Net force is equal to the mass times acceleration, taking this into consideration we can clearly see that acceleration is inversely proportional to mass.By Armah Ishmael Ryesa
How are Force Acceleration and Mass related?
(Force on an object) = (the object's mass) times (its acceleration)
Why does the object with less mass have a larger acceleration?
Newton's Second Law says force = mass * acceleration. If you push on two objects with the same force, the object with the smaller mass will have a greater acceleration.
What happens to the acceleration of an objects when the mass is cut in half?
The acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force acting on it. So if the force is reduced by half, the acceleration will also be halved. Of course, it will still be accelerating in the same direction as before, but not as quickly.
The acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the mass of the object and the amount of force applied is also called?
Newton's second law, which states that the acceleration of a body is directly proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to its mass, a = F/m.
What is the relationship between acceleration and net force?
Acceleration is directly proportional to the net force acting on an object. This relationship is described by Newton's second law of motion, which states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force applied to it and inversely proportional to its mass.
Is the amount of acceleration directly proportional to the fore and to the mass?
Acceleration is directly proportional to the force applied to an object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. This means that increasing the force applied will increase the acceleration, while increasing the mass will decrease the acceleration for a given force.
What does F stand for in Fma?
# Force = Mass (multiplied by) Acceleration # Force = Mass (multiplied by) Acceleration
How is force affected by mass and acceleration?
Force is directly proportional to both mass and acceleration according to Newton's second law of motion. The equation F = ma states that force (F) is equal to mass (m) multiplied by acceleration (a). This means that an increase in mass or acceleration will result in a greater force being exerted.
What is the mathematical relationship between force and acceleration?
Force in Newtons = mass in kilograms * acceleration ( can be gravitational acceleration )F = maThe mathematical relationship between force and acceleration is directly proportional.
According to Newton's second law Twice the force results in twice the acceleration.?
Yes, According to Newtons second law: F= Force m=mass a=acceleration. Newton used the formula F= ma. So force is equal to mass multiplied by acceleration. So if you multiply force by two it would be equal to mass multiplied by acceleration multiplied by two. 2F = 2(ma) Assuming the mass does not change, any multiplication of force will be a direct multiplication of acceleration.
What three quantities are related in newtons second law of motion?
In Newton's second law of motion, force, mass, and acceleration are related. The law states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. Mathematically, the relationship is expressed as F = ma, where F is the force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration.
What happens to acceleration if an object's mass is halved and the applied force is doubled?
If an object's mass is halved and the applied force is doubled, the acceleration of the object will quadruple. This is because acceleration is directly proportional to force and inversely proportional to mass according to Newton's second law (F = ma). Therefore, reducing the mass by half and doubling the force will result in a fourfold increase in acceleration.
Are mass and acceleration proportional?
No, mass and acceleration are not directly proportional. Acceleration is inversely proportional to mass, meaning that an increase in mass will result in a decrease in acceleration, assuming the applied force remains constant.
Are force and mass directly proportional or inversely proportional?
Force is directly proportional to mass provided the acceleration is constant.
Is Force is based upon both mass and acceleration?
Yes, Force is mass times acceleration. F = m • a
How is mass force and acceleration related?
Mathematically. F=MA Force=Mass (times) Acceleration I would say force would not be directly related to acceleration, I would say it relates directly to mass. But, of course, for a body to accelerate, it must be acted upon by a force. Physics is fun, isn't it? Tell me when it makes sense.
