Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Newton’s Second Law states ____
A
that an object in motion, stays in motion; an object at rest stays at rest.
B
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
C
that acceleration occurs when a force acts upon an object.
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Newton’s second law states that the acceleration of an object depends upon two variables – the net force acting on the object and the mass of the object. The acceleration of the body is directly proportional to the net force acting on the body and inversely proportional to the mass of the body.

Detailed explanation-2: -Newton’s second law is a quantitative description of the changes that a force can produce on the motion of a body. It states that the time rate of change of the momentum of a body is equal in both magnitude and direction to the force imposed on it.
