Answer:
Newton's Second Law of Motion
It states that the rate of change of momentum of a body is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place in the direction in which the force acts.
Mathematical formulation of Newton’s Second Law of Motion:
Let mass of an moving object be m.
Let is initial velocity be u and final velocity be v.
We know that momentum (p) = Mass × velocity
Therefore,
Initial momentum of object = mu
And Final momentum of the object = mv
Therefore, change in momentum = mv – mu
JagranjoshWhere k is the proportionality constant
, 1 unit force is defined as the force applied on an object of mass 1kg to produce the acceleration of 1m/s2.
Thus, 1 unit of force = k ×1kg ×1m/s2
⟹ k = 1
By putting the value of k=1 in equation (ii), we get:
F = ma
i.e., Force = Mass × Acceleration
