Forces and acceleration
Use Newton's first and second laws to predict whether an object will accelerate, and discover how an object's acceleration relates to its mass and the net force exerted on it. Apply Newton's laws to scenarios involving forces in 2D, including objects on inclines and objects suspended by ropes at different angles. Analyze the motion of systems, and combine Newton's second law with kinematics to derive new expressions.
