b) increase.
This is because acceleration is directly proportional to the resultant force acting on an object, according to Newton's Second Law of Motion. The formula for this relationship is F = ma, where F is the resultant force, m is the mass of the object, and a is the acceleration. Therefore, if the resultant force increases, the acceleration must also increase to maintain the same proportionality.
As the resultant force on an object increases acceleration will...
a) stay the same
b) increase
c) decrease
