Describe the relationship between applied force and mass and between applied force and weight as linear.

OpenStudy (osprey):

Force = mass times acceleration - a linear equation, since there are no square terms in it - is one way of seeing newton's second law of motion. The gravitational attraction of the earth to something is a force very often called weight. Weight = mass times grav acceleration - again linear Force divided by mass is CONSTANT (acceleration of gravity g = 9.81) Weight divided by mas is CONSTANT
