What is an example of Newtons 2 law?

Answer 1

Think of it like this-- what would hurt more: getting hit by a go kart at 10 miles per hour or a Mack Truck at 100 mph? The 2nd would hurt more because there is a lot more Force (more mass in the truck and more acceleration from the impact. Though the vehicles in my example are not accelerating your body would be because it would be going from zero to 10, or 100 mph instantly)

Answer 2

Contrary to Newton's first law, there is a net force acting upon a body. Take this example:

A hockey puck is given a constant horizontal force in a specific direction. The net force is constant and moves in the same direction. Thus, the puck's velocity constantly changes thus having a constant acceleration. In conclusion, the net force on the puck causes it to accelerate in the same direction as the net force. The sum of all forces equals the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration.

Answer 3

Newton's second law of motion, which states that force is equal to mass multiplied by acceleration, represents the relationship between force and change in velocity, or acceleration. The force then depends greatly on the change in velocity. When there is a change in the object's velocity or momentum, it is because it was accelerated or de-accelerated (change in velocity) due to some external force. This force would be equal to the mass of the object multiplied by the change in velocity (acceleration).

Answer 4

An example of Newton's second law is that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. This means that a heavier object requires more force to accelerate at the same rate as a lighter object.

Answer 5

An Example of the second law is when a mass falls and something is then accelerated across a surface!
