Newton's Second Law
· Something very
massive (high mass)
that's changing
speed very slowly
(low acceleration),
like a glacier, can
still have great force
Newton's Second Law
· Something very small (low
mass) that's changing speed
very quickly (high
acceleration), like a bullet,
can still have a great force.
