Lesson 3: Newton's Second Law

Question 3 • POP Physics 26/27

Which quantity may be calculated directly using Newton’s second law of motion?

Answer
A
weight
B
velocity
C
position
D
direction

Explanation

Newton’s second law states that force equals mass times acceleration, F = ma. Weight is the gravitational force on an object, so it can be calculated as mass times gravitational acceleration. Velocity, position, and direction are not calculated directly from this law alone.
