You have come up with two relationships: a) between acceleration and force (a and F) keeping mass m constant. b) between acceleration and mass (a and m) keeping F constant . c) Put the above relationships a) and b) together and find a mathematical relationship (or equation) between a, F and m. Your relationship should also include a proportionality constant k.

d) Look in your text and write Newton's Second Law for an object moving under the influence of a single force.

e) Compare the mathematical relationship you wrote to the above equation. What should be the value of the proportionality constant k in accordance with Newton's Second Law; k should be equal to:....
