Here's a more formal statement of the law:

Newton's Second Law of Motion: The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. This can be expressed mathematically as:

F = ma

where:

* F is the net force acting on the object

* m is the mass of the object

* a is the acceleration of the object

This means that:

* A larger net force produces a larger acceleration.

* A larger mass results in a smaller acceleration for the same force.
