Newton's second law can be used to describe what we commonly know as weight. Weight is technically the force of gravity acting on our mass. Our weight, in Newtons, is equal to our mass times the acceleration due to gravity acting upon us on Earth's surface.

newtons second law says , F=ma

where F= Force unit is N(stands for Newton), m=Mass(unit is Kg) and a=Accelaration (m/s^2).

its very simple, to move mass of 1kg at accelaration of 1 m/s^2 , you need to apply forrce of 1N

Newton's Laws and Gravity originally explained the motion of the planets proposed by Keplar. For example the elliptical orbits. Newton's Laws and gravity explain the acceleration of masses and forces throughout the Universe. The Laws are Universal Laws.

Newton's second law says that a force acting on an object will produce an acceleration proportional to its mass, in more mathematical terms, F = ma
