State Newton's second law in easier words?

Question

Can someone state Newton's second law so that it's easier to understand? Thank you!

Answer 1

F = m * a

The sum of forces (F) on an object is equal to the mass (m) of the object multiplied by the object's acceleration (a).

OR,

The harder your throw something, the harder it hits.

it = the mass

harder throw = more acceleration

harder it hits = more force

Yep, that's right, something you have known for most of your life.

Answer 2

As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.

In other words...The bigger the push, the more speed...The bigger the thing you are pushing, the slower it moves... That is VERY simplistic, but is MOSTLY accurate.

Answer 3

what goes up, must come down  

Answer 4

F=ma

Force = mass * acceleration

If someone (the force) keeps pushing you , you (the mass) will

keep moving faster,faster,etc. (the acceleration)

Answer 5

It states that when a force acts upon a body, acceleration is produced. This acceleration is directly proportional to the applied force which means that the greater the force applied, the greater the acceleration produced. This acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass of the body which means greater the mass, the lesser will be the acceleration.

greater force => more acceleration

smaller force => lesser acceleration

greater mass => lesser acceleration

lesser mass => greater acceleration

After solving the above statements mathematically, we conclude that:

           F = m*a

REMEMBER: without force acceleration can never be produced!!

I hope my explanation will help....
