... It is important to note that the left hand side is the net (unbalanced) force acting on the object and that this is a vector sum. If the net force is in the same line as the motion (at least partly), then the result of the net force is that the object speeds up or slows down. If the net force is per ...

... results when x increases by one unit. When given a linear function in the form y = ax + c, the slope or gradient is a. If a is positive the graph slopes upwards from left to right and if a is negative, the graph slopes downward from left to right. If a = 0, then ax = 0, which leaves y = b. The resul ...
