  • newtons second law
    • we can use law to look at the relationship beween an unbalanced force and acceleration
    • this states that a resultant force will cause an object to accelerate and that the acceleration is directly proportional to the size of the resultant force
      • the bit about acceleration means the larger the resultant force,the larger is the acceleartion(for a constant mass)
    • equation
      • resultant force(N)=mass(kg) x acceleration (m/s sqaured)
    • how to convert g into kg for grams
      • divid the number by 1000
