The formula that contains an error is:

Fnet = Δv/Δt

This expression does not correctly represent net force. The correct formulas that relate net force (F_net) to other physical quantities are:

  1. Fnet = ma (Newton's Second Law)
  2. Fnet = Δp/Δt (where p is momentum, and Δp is the change in momentum over time Δt)

The term Δv/Δt represents acceleration (a), not net force (F_net). Therefore, it should not be used to define net force directly.
