The greater the mass of the object, the force will be the same. The greater the acceleration, the lesser the force will be.
The greater the mass of the object, the force will be the same. The greater the acceleration, the lesser the force will be.

acceleration and mass are not related to force
acceleration and mass are not related to force

Both acceleration and mass are directly related, or directly proportional, to the force of an object.
Both acceleration and mass are directly related, or directly proportional, to the force of an object.

The greater the mass of the object, the greater the force will be. The greater the acceleration, the greater the force will be.

Answer 1

The two correct options that relate acceleration, mass, and force are:

1. The greater the mass of the object, the greater the force will be. The greater the acceleration, the greater the force will be.

2. Both acceleration and mass are directly related, or directly proportional, to the force of an object.

These statements align with Newton's second law of motion, which states \( F = ma \), where \( F \) is force, \( m \) is mass, and \( a \) is acceleration. This means that if either the mass or acceleration increases, the force must also increase.
