Responses

Increased mass results in reduced acceleration.
Increased mass results in reduced acceleration.

Mass and acceleration have a direct relationship.
Mass and acceleration have a direct relationship.

Acceleration increases regardless of mass.
Acceleration increases regardless of mass.

Mass increases with acceleration.

1 answer

The correct conclusion from the data provided is:

Increased mass results in reduced acceleration.

This is consistent with Newton's second law of motion, which states that acceleration is inversely proportional to mass when the force is constant. As the mass increases, the acceleration decreases.
