True or False

True. Isaac Newton’s Second Law of Motion (F=ma) explains the relationship between force and acceleration in motion. The application of force on an object causes an acceleration of that object.

don't say application of force causes an acceleration.. i would say.. there must be a NET force acting on the object.. for example if i put force on the wall it doesn't accelerate.. similarly right now as i sit on my chair earth is pulling me towards the centre of it.. and i am still not accelerating cause there is not NET force !
