State Newton's second law of motion. Under what condition does it take the form F = ma ?

Options

A. F=dp/dt
B. F=mv
C. `F=mv^(2)`
D. `F=m^(2)v`

Answer

A

Explanation

(a)From Newton's second law of motion, the rate of change of linear momentum of an object is directly proportional to the external force applied on it and change always take place in the direction of applied force.
`F=(dp)/(dt)`
