Physics Acceleration Flashcards
1
Q
What is the aim?
A
To investigate the effect of varying the force on the acceleration of an object of constant mass, and the effect of varying the mass of an object on the acceleration produced by a constant
2
Q
What is Newtons second law
A
That the acceleration experienced by an object is directly proportional to the net force
