Write a hypothesis for Part II of the lab, which is about the relationship described by F = ma. In the lab, you will use a toy car and apply forces to it. Use the format of "if . . . then . . . because . . .” and be sure to answer the lesson question "How can Newton's laws be experimentally verified?” specific to Newton’s second law.
If the force applied to the toy car increases, then the acceleration of the car will also increase, because according to Newton's second law (F = ma), the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the force applied to it. This hypothesis can experimentally verify Newton's second law by demonstrating the relationship between force and acceleration through the manipulation of variables in the experiment with the toy car.
