Motion ForcesLesson 1 Force Acceleration Newton’s Second Law Air Resistance Calculations Newton’s Second Law Newton’s Second Law of Motion The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. F = ma Force and Acceleration What’s different about throwing a ball horizontally as hard as you can and tossing it gently? When you throw hard, you exert a much greater force on the ball. Force and Acceleration The hard-thrown ball has a greater change in velocity, and the change occurs over a shorter period of time. Recal
