can you tell me the newton second law of motion derivation

Newton's second law states that rate of change of momentum of a body is directly proportional to the applied force and
takes place in the direction in which the force acts.
takes place in the direction in which the force acts.
Thus, if under the action of a force F for time interval Δt, the velocity of a body of mass m changes from v to v + Δv
i.e. its initial momentum p = m v changes by Δp = m Δv .
According to the Second Law, ![begin mathsize 12px style F space proportional to space fraction numerator increment p over denominator increment T end fraction space space space space o r space space space F space equals space k space fraction numerator increment p over denominator increment T end fraction end style](https://images.topperlearning.com/topper/tinymce/cache/07fa7f22ac85d06ae49fb1fad067b477.png)

where k is a constant of proportionality.
Taking the limit Δt → 0, the term Δp/ΔT becomes differential co-efficient dp/dt of p with respect to t.
Thus F = k (dp/dt) ...............................(1)
if mass is not changing, we have dp/dt = m(dv/dt).
Also we have (dv/dt) = a, where a is acceleration of the body which is subjected to force F.
Hence Eqn.(1) becomes F = k m (dv/dt) = k m a ...................(2)
Let us choose units system as SI units and define 1 unit force as 1 Newton that produces acceleration 1 m/s2 on unit mass 1 kg.
Then k will become 1.
Finally, we write eqn.(2) in SI units as, F = m a
