The first law is a particular case of the second law where F 0. Mathematically it can be stated this way. It is equivalent to three equations.
Newtons Second Law of Motion Examples.
Newtons second law of motion explains how force can change the acceleration of the object and how acceleration and mass of the same object are related. One for each component of the vectors. Newtons second law of motion describes that when a force is applied to an object it produces acceleration in the object ie rate of change of velocity. Defined as the amount that produces an acceleration of 1 m s-2 in an object of 1 kg mass.
