Answer:

Proportionality constant is applied between two quantities in an equation in which the other quantity (or quantities) is a constant.

In the equation,

F =ma,

mass is a constant. It is not varying with any of the factors such as time, temperature or pressure.

So it can be taken as a constant. Let it be 'k'.

So we can rewrite the above equation as

F = ka, where k is a constant or simply

F proportional to a.

We connot say that F is directly proportional to mass and acceleration.

But we can say that F directly proportional to m,

if we take m as a variable and it varies with some factor ( if you want).
