Q

Newtons 2nd law

A

When a net force is applied to an object it accelerates in the direction of the net force. The acceleration is directly proportional to the bet force and inversely proportional to the mass of an object

Q

Newtons law of universal gravitation:

A

Every object in the universe attracts every other object in the universe with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers
