def: good
force is mass acceleration

Mass accelaration is the
result of force. No mass sets to moving unless a force is applied.
def: the one about force
Merriam-Webster: Force wrote:
noun \ˈfȯrs\
: physical strength, power, or effect
: power or violence used on a person or thing
: strength or power that is not physical
Sounds like a correct'n to me.

def: redundant
acceleration is change in vector in verse velocity and vice versa
I find it just a bit arrogant that someone'd ask for definitions of words, then correct those definitions, like some old school ma'rm. If you wanna define something, just do it, and quit with the condescending, self-proud shenanigans, please. We're mostly all adults, we don't need to be, nor should we be, talked down to like a pack of first graders.
The previously presented definition ain't near "redundant", as it just doesn't suit your aims, whatever those may be.

newton et.al, Questions?
Why not just say that to begin with, and quit with the condescension?

What are two properties of force?
1.
2.
1. Affects stuff.
2. Get's defined by someone trying to answer a question, and then redefined by the one that asked it in the first place.

1.
2.
1. Takes up space.
2. Can be affected by some, if not all forces.

Does gravity force relative mass acceleration?
Yes. This can be confirmed by hopping out of an airplane, and noticing how ya start speeding up as you start speeding down.
r~ wrote:
Is curvature reaction to force?
Yes. This'n can be confirmed by asking the maternal unit to stand in the middle of the living room, where it's then observed the joists set to creaking and groaning, and deflecting downwards.

Might an unforeseen wind alter the course of a bullet?
Yes.

What does Authority tell you so?
Observation tells me if I fire a shot at a target a mile away, I need to pray to the gods of wind to hush up a spell if I've got any hope of that bullet hitting the target.
r~ wrote:
How might you tell even better?
Become either the bullet, or the wind, such that my observations'd be even that much closer to that which I observe.
Snip the pound cake recipe at the end.
