Question

which of the following equations describes newtons second law?
a. $m = \frac{f}{a}$
b. $f = \frac{a}{m}$
c. $m = fa$
d. $f = \frac{m}{a}$

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Newton's second law formula

Newton's second law is \(F = ma\).

Step2: Rearrange the formula

If we solve \(F = ma\) for \(m\), we get \(m=\frac{F}{a}\) by dividing both sides of the equation by \(a\).

Answer:

A. \(m=\frac{F}{a}\)
