When a force 'F' acts on a body having mass 'm' , then it produces acceleration 'a' in the body in its direction and the acceleration produced is directly proportional to the force exerted and inversely proportional to the mass of the body.
Mathematically;
a α F -------------> directly proportional to Force
a α 1/m --------> inversely proportional to mass
Combining both, we get
a α F/m
a = k.F/m --------> k is a constant and its value is taken as 1.
a = 1. F/m
a = F/m
ma = F
=> F = ma
Force = Mass x Acceleration
Using this, we get
F = ma = Mass × Acceleration
Thus, we get Newton’s second law of motion
