Question

Sample Response: If force is applied to a car, then its acceleration will change proportionally, as predicted by Newton’s second law, F = ma.

What did you include in your hypothesis? Check all that apply.

a statement of Newton’s second law
a formula representing Newton’s second law
mentions force
mentions acceleration

Answer 1

All four apply.

- a statement of Newton’s second law — yes ("its acceleration will change proportionally")
- a formula representing Newton’s second law — yes ("F = ma")
- mentions force — yes ("If force is applied to a car")
- mentions acceleration — yes ("its acceleration will change")
