Question
A group of students conduct an experiment to study Newton’s second law of motion. They applied a force to a toy car and measure its acceleration. The table shows the results.

Force (N) Acceleration (m/s²)
2.0 5.0
3.0 7.5
6.0 15.0
If the students graph the data points, which conclusion will they be able to make?

(1 point)
Responses

The data points will fall along a line. This shows that as the force increases, the acceleration increases.
