MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

1 min • 5 pts

________ says force is equal to mass times acceleration (F = ma).

Newton's Second Law

Einstein's Theory of Relativity

Pythagorean Theorem

Archimedes' Principle

Answer explanation

Newton's Second Law states that force (F) is equal to mass (m) times acceleration (a), expressed as F = ma. This fundamental principle of physics explains how the motion of an object changes when a force is applied.
