It depends ...

If the body is accelerating uniformly with a constant acceleration a ....then the Force is a constant force....

But if it is accelerating non uniformly....then the Force is not constant...The 2nd law says

F=m*a

where m is mass of the body...

Second law of motion?

Second Law of Motion: Acceleration is produced when a force acts on a mass. the greater the mass ( of the object being accelerated) the greater the amount of force needed ( to accelerate the object).


Does mass change when an unbalanced force acts upon an object?

Yes , but is negligeble in case of bigger object


When is mass accelerated?

When the forces on it do not add up to zero.


Upon what factors value of g depends?

Gravitational acceleration (g) depends on the mass of the object that you are being accelerated toward (Earth), and the average distance from that object. (the radius of the Earth)


What will an object acted upon by net force do?

It will undergo accelerated motion.


What is the purpose of gravity filtration through paper?

because the water mass is 18 and the gravity force which acts on this is 9.8 per sec so the filtration process is occurr through paper or other reason is that the mass of water is less so the gravity force does not acts upon this .


What is newton's law's of motion?

(1) An object at rest will remain at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force. An object in motion continues in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.This law is often called "the law of inertia"(2)Acceleration is produced when a force acts on a mass. The greater the mass (of the object being accelerated) the greater the amount of force needed (to accelerate the object).(3)For every action there is an equal and opposite re-action. -Nick Jonas


Any acceleration implies the presence of what?

A mass to be accelerated and a force to provide the acceleration.


If an unbalanced force acts on a body what will happen?

According to Newton's first law of motion, as a force acts on a body then the body gets accelerated in the direction of the force.


What force is required to accelerated a body with a mass of 18 kilograms at a rate of 36ms2?

2n


Why is force needed?

Force happens when an object of mass is accelerated, and the equation to calculate force is : force=mass/acceleration


What is the tendency of an object to stay in motion or at rest until a force acts upon it called?

The tendency is called inertia. The inertia of an object is directly related to its mass, since the effect of any given force depends on the mass and motion of the object (and whether the force acts with or against any other existing forces).
