Luis and Aisha conducted an experiment. They exerted different forces on four objects. Their results are shown in the table.

A 3-column table with 4 rows. The first column labeled Object has entries 1, 2, 3, 4. The second column labeled Mass has entries 10 kilograms, 100 grams, 10 grams, 1 kilogram. The third column labeled Force (Newtons) has entries 4 Newtons, 20 Newtons, 4 Newtons, 20 Newtons.
Based on the data, which object has the greatest acceleration?

Object 1
Object 2
Object 3
Object 4

Acceleration = force ÷ mass (in kg). Convert grams to kg: 100 g = 0.1 kg, 10 g = 0.01 kg.

- Object 1: a = 4 N / 10 kg = 0.4 m/s²
- Object 2: a = 20 N / 0.1 kg = 200 m/s²
- Object 3: a = 4 N / 0.01 kg = 400 m/s²
- Object 4: a = 20 N / 1 kg = 20 m/s²

Greatest acceleration: Object 3.
