• Force
  ...nt force on the body. A body's [[acceleration]] is proportional to the net force exerted it and, according to [[Newton's second law of motion]], the proport ...ody upon which the force is exerted. When a body experiences a nonzero net force for any period of time, its velocity and momentum change over that time. [[
