Newton’s 2nd Law

An object’s acceleration depends on the mass of

the object and the amount of force applied

to it (F=ma).In simple terms… See next slide Go On

10

In simple terms…

It takes more force to move and to stop a larger mass.

FOR EXAMPLE…Discuss examples with your partner or use the textbook
