Definitions [2]
Define Newton’s second law of motion.
Newton’s second law of motion states that the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to force applied and takes place in the direction of the force.
Definition: Newton's Second Law of Motion
"The rate of change of momentum is proportional to the applied force, and the change of momentum occurs in the direction of the force."
Formulae [1]
Formula: Newton's Second Law of Motion
General Form: \[\vec F\] =\[\frac{d\vec{p}}{dt}\]
For Constant Mass: \[\vec F\] = m\[\vec a\]
Momentum: \[\vec p\] = m\[\vec v\]
