Physics
Newton Second Law of Motion
Calculate force from mass and acceleration.
F = m × a
Formula Explanation
The net force on an object equals its mass multiplied by acceleration.
Variables Explained
F = Net force in newtons; m = Mass in kilograms; a = Acceleration in m/s².
Solved Example
Find the force on a 5 kg object accelerating at 2 m/s².
F = 5 × 2 = 10 N.
