Newton's Second Law
Force = mass x acceleration
Unit for Force = Newton
1 N = 1 kg x m/s/s

Newton's Second Law3 Main Ideas:1. Acceleration is the result of unbalanced forces.
2. A larger force makes a proportionally larger acceleration.
2x force = 2x acceleration
3. Acceleration is inversely proportional to mass.

Which will fall faster?!
open plastic bag OR crumpled plastic bag
WHY????

Air Resistance opposes motion of an object moving through air
Terminal Velocity: gravity and air resistance equal
object stops accelerating=
