Solution

The correct option is D all three
Expression for Newton's second law of motion which is applicable in all conditions is:
$F = \frac{Δ p}{Δ t}$
In other two expressions: $F = m a = m \frac{Δ v}{Δ t}$ , it is assumed that mass is constant. This assumption does not hold universally under all conditions.

The correct form of Newton's second law is:
(a) $F = \frac{△ p}{△ t}$ (b) $F = m \frac{△ v}{△ t}$ (c) $F = v \frac{△ m}{△ t}$ (d) F = mv

\to F = m \to a

F = m a

F = \frac{G m_{1} m_{2}}{d^{2}}
