Velocity and Acceleration

Motion Equation and Acceleration

Let's see the second law "Motion equation" of "Motion law of the Newton" here.
F=ma


You can read "Force is a product of mass and the acceleration" from this expression.
The object moves when force is added.
The acceleration depends on the magnitude and the mass of force.
On the other hand, it is shown that this equation is "Force and the speed are irrelevant".
Force is not caused the movement of the object at a very fast velocity if there is no acceleration.


The velocity and the acceleration are quite different concepts though look like the image.
On the contrary, the effect on force is different.


When the velocity is confused with the acceleration, you can not correctly obtain the motion equation.
Do not mistake the acceleration for the velocity.


If the velocity is differentiated, it becomes an acceleration though it doesn't describe here.
Refer to "Mechanics of mass" for details.
