F = m * a
Where:
* F is the net force acting on an object (measured in Newtons, N)
* m is the mass of the object (measured in kilograms, kg)
* a is the acceleration of the object (measured in meters per second squared, m/s²)
This equation states that the net force acting on an object is directly proportional to its mass and its acceleration. In simpler terms, the more massive an object is, or the faster it is accelerating, the greater the force acting upon it.
