Question

Under what conditions does the sign of proportionality in Newton's second law of motion change to the sign of equality?
Please give the correct answer. ​

Answer 1

Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of a system is directly proportional to and in the same direction as the net external force acting on the system, and inversely proportional to its mass.

In equation form,

Newton's second law of motion is:

a=Fnetm

a=Fnetma = F net m
