Force Equation

Single Force: $\overrightarrow{F}=m\overrightarrow{a}$​
Multiple Forces: $\mathrm{\Sigma }\overrightarrow{F}=m\overrightarrow{a}$​
x-direction Force Balance: $\mathrm{\Sigma }{\overrightarrow{F}}_x=m{\overrightarrow{a}}_x$​
y-direction Force Balance: $\mathrm{\Sigma }{\overrightarrow{F}}_y=m{\overrightarrow{a}}_y$

$\overrightarrow{F}=\text{ Applied Force (N)}$​
$m=\text{ Mass (kg)}$​
$\overrightarrow{a}={\text{ Acceleration (m/s}}^2\text{)}$

$\left[\begin{array}{rl}1\text{ Newton}& =1\text{kg}\cdot \text{m}/{\text{s}}^2\end{array}\right]$​
