F=MA Formula

Front

What does the formula F=MA represent?

Back

The formula represents Newton's second law of motion, which states that the force (F) acting on an object is equal to the mass (M) of the object multiplied by its acceleration (A).

Front

What is the unit of force in the International System of Units (SI)?

Back

The unit of force is the Newton (N).

Front

How do you calculate mass using the F=MA formula?

Back

Mass can be calculated by rearranging the formula to M = F/A, where F is the force applied and A is the acceleration.

Front

If a force of 100 N is applied to an object and it accelerates at 10 m/s², what is the mass of the object?

Back

10 kg

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object, measured in meters per second squared (m/s²).

Front

What is the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration?

Back

The relationship is direct; increasing the mass of an object while keeping the force constant will decrease its acceleration, and vice versa.

Front

What is the acceleration of a 20 kg object pushed with a force of 100 N?

Back

5 m/s²

Front

What happens to the acceleration of an object if the mass is doubled while the force remains constant?

Back

The acceleration is halved.

Front

What is the force exerted by a 50 kg object falling freely under gravity (9.8 m/s²)?

Back

490 N

Front

What is the formula to calculate force?

Back

Force can be calculated using the formula F = MA.
