Question

The larger the push, the larger the change in velocity. This is an example of Newton's Second Law of Motion which states that the acceleration an object experiences is _____ .

Answer 1

According to Newton, an object will only accelerate if there is a net or unbalanced forceacting upon it. The presence of an unbalanced force will accelerate an object - changing its speed, its direction, or both its speed and direction.

Answer 2

Newton's Second Law of Motion which states that the acceleration an object experiences is directly proportional to the force applied to it
