Newton’s 2nd Law describes the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration of an object with the formula F=ma. Which scenario below will result in the greatest acceleration? A 20 kg rock thrown with a 100 N force.

B.
A 10,000 kg rocket launched with 100,000 N of force.

C.
A 2000 kg car accelerated with a 1000 N force from the engine.

D.
A 50 kg student pushed in a chair with a force of 1000 N.

the answer is c.)

explanation:

what was the acceleration of the 2 kg cart?

⇒ 16.0 cm/s2

what was the acceleration of the 4 kg cart?

⇒ 8.1 cm/s2

what was the acceleration of the 6 kg cart?

⇒ 5.3 cm/s2

i think they are all correct

explanation:

they seem good

answer would be letter choice (a),   a ball resting on a shelf. would be another example of potential energy   >   stored energy > not moving.

a ball spinning on a finger   >   kinetic energy > moving energy

a ball rolling on the ground   >   kinetic energy   > moving energy

a   ball flying through the air   > kinetic energy   >   moving energy

hope that                                         : )
