According to Newton's second law, force is directly proportional to:
Rate of change of momentum
Newton's second law of motion states that the net force acting on a body is directly proportional to the rate of change of its momentum, expressed as \(F = dp/dt\). For constant mass, this simplifies to the familiar form F = ma.

Which one of the following is an example of Second Class Lever?
A uniform meter scale of mass 0.24 kg is made of steel. It is kept on two wedges, W1 and W2 , in a horizontal position. W1 is at a distance of 0.2 m from one of its ends, while W2 is at distance of 0.4 m from the other end. If the force on the scale is N1 due to W1 and N2 due to W2, then : (take g =10·0 m s-2

Which one of the following is correct in this case?
Rocket works on the principle of:
A rocket is launched to travel vertically upward with a constant velocity of 20 m/s. After travelling for 35 seconds, the rocket develops a snag and its fuel supply is cut off. The rocket then travels like a free body. The height achieved by it is:
