Question

What does Newton's second law state?

Answer 1

It states that 911 was an inside job.

Answer 2

The rate of change of momentum of a body is proportional to the resultant force acting on the body and is in the same direction.

Answer 3

My mnemonic for Newton's Laws: I M R-Force ("Impossible Missions R-Force") which stands for:

1. INERTIA (tendency to remain at rest or in motion)

2. MOMENTUM (force is relative to mass)

3. RECIPROCAL FORCE (equal and opposite reaction)

Answer 4

No. The first couple of answers given are wrong.  They refer to the other laws.

This is the second law of motion.  And check out the link>

2nd Law - The law of resultant force

"F = ma: the net force on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration."

Answer 5

Every action as an equal and opposite reaction

Answer 6

Newton's 2nd Law Of Motion states that "A body continues at a state of rest or uniform velocity unless an external force is acting upon it".

1st Law. The rate of change of motion (acceleration) is proportional to the applied force and takes place in the direction of that force.

3rs Law. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
