1 answer

A and C would increase the acceleration of a dog sled.

Adding another dog would increase the pulling force and therefore increase the acceleration.

Adding more mass to the sled would increase the force required to pull it, but assuming the same number of dogs, it would also increase the overall force exerted on the sled, leading to increased acceleration.

Removing a dog or running the sled up a hill would decrease the acceleration since there would be less pulling force available to move the sled.
