Answer 1

The correct statement about Newton's second law is:

**There is a positive correlation between force and acceleration for a constant mass.**

This can be expressed by the formula \( F = ma \), where \( F \) is the force, \( m \) is the mass, and \( a \) is the acceleration. When the mass is constant, an increase in force leads to an increase in acceleration.
