Answer 1

Acceleration works in direct proportion to force.

This means that as the force applied to an object increases, the acceleration of that object also increases, provided the mass of the object remains constant. This relationship is described by Newton's second law of motion, which states that \( F = ma \) (force equals mass times acceleration).
