A great majority of physical principals can be easily described
through
Newton's second law of motion; which defines a relationship
between mass,
acceleration and the force acting on an object (Knight 127).
So, before anything can be discussed relating
to physics one has to
understand that the amount of force is dependent on both the
values off mass
and acceleration.
What's nice about this law is that it can be applied
to almost anything. This makes it easy to determine
that a string with more mass is going to require more
force to pluck to maintain a certain acceleration
than a less massive string.
