Write a hypothesis for Part II of the lab, which is about the relationship described by F = ma. In the lab, you will use a toy car and apply forces to it. Use the format of "if . . . then . . . because . . .” and be sure to answer the lesson question "How can Newton's laws be experimentally verified?” specific to Newton’s second law.

Answer :

Sample Response: If force is applied to a car, then its acceleration will change proportionally, as predicted by Newton’s second law, F = ma.

The applied force on the toy car is causing the acceleration of car. This verifies the Newton's second law of motion.

Let the mass of toy car be, m. Such that the magnitude of force applied on the toy car be F.

Then as per the given relationship,

F = ma

The above expression is the standard expression of force. And this is also known as Newton's Second law of motion which says that, "The rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the force applied on the object".

That is,

[tex]F\propto\dfrac{dp}{dt}\\\\ F=m\dfrac{dv}{dt}\\\\\\[/tex]

Here, [tex]\dfrac{dv}{dt}[/tex] is the change in velocity with time, which is called acceleration produced by the toy car. It is denoted as a.

Therefore,

[tex]F=m\dfrac{dv}{dt}\\\\ F=m\times a[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that the applied force on the toy car is causing the acceleration of car. This verifies the Newton's second law of motion.
