Question

Which statement is correct about Newton's second law? (1 point) Responses There is a positive correlation between force and acceleration for a constant mass. There is a positive correlation between force and acceleration for a constant mass. There is a positive correlation between mass and acceleration for a constant force. There is a positive correlation between mass and acceleration for a constant force. There is a negative correlation between force and acceleration for a constant mass. There is a negative correlation between force and acceleration for a constant mass. There is a negative correlation between mass and force for a constant acceleration.

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 is represented by the formula \( F = ma \), where \( F \) is the net force applied, \( m \) is the mass, and \( a \) is the acceleration. If the mass is constant and the force increases, the acceleration also increases.
