How to Use This Calculator

Enter the applied force in newtons (N) and the object's mass in kilograms (kg). Click Calculate to get acceleration a in m/s².

Formula

a = F / m

Newton's Second Law relates force, mass, and acceleration. Ensure consistent units (N and kg) for results in m/s².

Frequently Asked Questions

What if mass is zero?

Mass must be positive. The calculator enforces this requirement.
