       3.1.2   A net force produces acceleration of an object in the direction of the net
               force. The acceleration is directly proportional to the net force and
               inversely proportional to the mass of the object. 

       3.2.2   a ∝ F  (if m constant and net force decreases, the acceleration
               decreases) OR (as net force increases acceleration increases)
               a ∝ F  (indien m konstant bly en netto krag afneem, neem die
               versnelling af) OF (as netto krag toeneem sal versnelling toeneem)                 (2)
