Newton's second law of motion addresses the relationship between what two variables that influence the force on a body?

A. Mass and acceleration B. acceleration and inertia C. Inertia and mass

D. Acceleration and velocity

Answer: a

A. Mass and acceleration

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, the resultant force is directly proportional to the rate of change in momentum Therefore; F = ma, where F is the resultant force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration of the body. Resultant force depends on the acceleration and the mass of a body in motion, an increase in acceleration causes a corresponding increase in resultant force. A body with higher mass will have a larger strong force if the acceleration is kept constant.
