Question

If the same force is applied to an object with a small mass, it will have a ____ acceleration

Answer 1

If the same force is applied to an object with a small mass, it will have a **greater** acceleration. According to Newton's second law of motion (F = ma), for a given force (F), the acceleration (a) is inversely proportional to the mass (m) of the object. Thus, with a smaller mass, the acceleration will be larger.
