Science Group 2: Newton’s Second Law

Introduction: (Philip)
Hello everyone, good morning classmates and teacher. I am John Philip and I'm the leader of
group 2 consisting of Sadiyah, Miguel, and Ella Nicole. Our topic today is all about Newton's
Second Law: F = Ma or in other terms "Law of Force and Acceleration". It applies to objects
whose forces are not balanced according to Newton's second law. When the net force acting
upon an object increases, so does its acceleration, so it follows from the second law that
acceleration is dependent on two variables. So, what I mean about it.

Setting: (Ella)
 What does F= mean? Force is directly proportional to mass and acceleration. You double
the force. If you double the acceleration, you double the force. Doubling the mass and the
acceleration quadruples the force. (2m) (2a)-4F
 F = ma basically means that the force of an object comes from its mass and its
accelerations.
 hitting a "For example, ... ball, a ball develops a certain amount of acceleration after
being hit. The acceleration with which the ball moves is directly proportional to the force
applied to it. This means that the harder you hit the ball, the faster it will move, thereby
demonstrating Newton's Second Law.
 How does Newton's Second law apply every day? Well, acceleration. (Gaining speed)
happens when a force acts on a mass (object).

 Riding your bicycle is a good example of this law of motion at work Your bicycle is the
mass. Your leg muscles pushing on the pedals of your bicycle are the force.
Conclusion: (Sadiyah)
 A body's motion can be changed by forces according to Newton's second law. A body's
momentum changes at a rate equal to its force, both in magnitude and direction. In
addition to having both magnitude and direction, momentum is a vector quantity. Force
and acceleration can both be vector quantities for a body whose mass is constant.
