According to Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of an object is inversely proportional to which quantity? velocity mass net force displacement

worry

Answer

mass

Explanation

According the Newton's second law of motion, force applied on an object is directly proportional to its mass and acceleration.

F = ma

where m is mass and a is acceleration

rearranging the formula

a = F/m

a = 1/m

we can see that acceleration is inversely proportional to mass if force is kept constant.

Thus, we can conclude that according to Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of an object is inversely proportional to the mass of object
