According to Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. This can be represented with the formula:
\[ F = m \cdot a \]
(where \( F \) is the force, \( m \) is the mass, and \( a \) is the acceleration).
If the mass of the object stays the same and the force applied to it increases, the acceleration of that object will then:
**increase.**
\[ F = m \cdot a \]
(where \( F \) is the force, \( m \) is the mass, and \( a \) is the acceleration).
