Force (F) = Mass (m) x Acceleration (a)
This is known as Newton's Second Law of Motion.
Here's a breakdown:
* Force (F): Measured in Newtons (N)
* Mass (m): Measured in kilograms (kg)
* Acceleration (a): Measured in meters per second squared (m/s²)
Example:
If an object with a mass of 10 kg accelerates at 2 m/s², the force acting on it would be:
Force = 10 kg x 2 m/s² = 20 N
