Describe how changing the force affects the acceleration.

OpenStudy (fifciol):

\[a=\frac{ F }{ m }\] when you change the force the acceleration also changes because accelaration differs from force only by a factor of m wchich is scalar( some number) e.q if force is constant acc. must also be constant (if F=5N mass 2kg , a=2,5 m/s^2) if force changes e.g. F=2t^2 + 3t + 4 and mass is 2 then acc is t^2 +3/2t +2 and in the general if force changes(could be described by some function of any variable(time , distance, etc.) a(x)=F(x)/m
