Question

newtons second law of motion states an objects acceleration is in the same direction as the net force on the object and is equal to
the net force exerted on it divided by its mass.
its mass times its acceleration.
its mass divided by the net force exerted on it.
the net force exerted on it times its mass.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Newton's second law formula

Newton's second law is \(F = ma\), where \(F\) is the net force, \(m\) is the mass, and \(a\) is the acceleration.

Step2: Solve for acceleration

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

Answer:

the net force exerted on it divided by its mass.
