∙ 13y agoForce = mass x acceleration. This means that for more mass, you need more force. Also, if you want more acceleration, you need more force.

Do you divide force and mass to get acceleration?
you have to take mass and acceleration to get force
Why is this not the acceleration formula - acceleration force - mass if acceleration increases when force increases and it decreases when mass increases?
My bad, im asking why the formula isnt acceleration= force - mass
How is acceleration and net force related when mass is constant?
Force = Mass x Acceleration
How does force vary with acceleration at constant mass?
If acceleration is kept constant but you vary the mass, the force will vary in direct proportion to the mass. If the mass increases, the force will also increase, and if the mass decreases the force will also decrease. Newton's 2nd Law, illustrated by the equation F=ma, illustrates this.
What is the acceleration caused by your push on a ball?
The acceleration of the ball would depend on its mass and the force of the push. This is because force = mass times acceleration. You could manipulate this equation to solve for acceleration by dividing each side by mass. Acceleration therefore equals force/mass.
What two factors affect an object acceleration?
Force and mass. Acceleration is force per unit of mass (a=f/m).
What affect momentum?
force and acceleration
How does mass affect accelaration?
From the formula force = mass x acceleration, if there is more mass, there will be less acceleration. Assuming the force doesn't also change.From the formula force = mass x acceleration, if there is more mass, there will be less acceleration.

What affect does mass have on acceleration?
this equation might help force = mass * acceleration the more massive an object is the more force is required to accelerate it
How does decreasing force affect acceleration if the mass stays the same?
ANY net force will cause an acceleration. If the force is reduced, there will be less acceleration, though.
Will the mass of an object affect its force?
Yes. The force =mass x acceleration, f=ma. The larger the mass the larger the force.
Explain how a football and a soccerball can have different accelerations if pushed by the same force?
Force = mass x acceleration, therefore, acceleration = force / mass.Force = mass x acceleration, therefore, acceleration = force / mass.Force = mass x acceleration, therefore, acceleration = force / mass.Force = mass x acceleration, therefore, acceleration = force / mass.
How does force affect stationary object of different masses?
Force accelerates stationary masses as acceleration a=f/m; theacceleration is inverse to the mass. The smaller the mass the larger the acceleration and the larger the mass the smaller the acceleration.
Does force describe mass or acceleration?
Neither. Force causes acceleration of mass. Mathematically, Force = Mass * Acceleration.
How are force mass and acceleration calculated with newtons second law?
oxnNJaJanjoNasONNsa force, motion, acceleration, mass
What creates force?
Mass and acceleration creates force (Mass*Acceleration=Force).
What two thing affect the acceleration of an object?
The force acting upon the object as well as the mass of the object. Both will affect the acceleration of the object.
