Question

Four students perform an experiment by pulling an object horizontally across a frictionless table. They repeat the
experiment on several other objects of different masses, always applying just enough force to produce the same
acceleration. All of them, graph the results individually. Which student's graph is correct?
Explain.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Student 4

Explanation:

They produce the same acceleration means that in all the cases

F/m ratio is constant.

When F is very large, Larger value of m is needed to compensate the ratio to be constant. It means the graph increases proportionately.

Hence student 4 is right.
