Answer:
It is summarized by the equation: Force (N) = mass (kg) × acceleration (m/s²). Thus, an object of constant mass accelerates in proportion to the force applied. If the same force is applied to two objects of differ- ent mass, the heavier object has less acceleration than the lighter object

Mass, acceleration and force are related as F = m * a.
- The relation is in accordance to Newton's second law of motion. The second law of motion is for objects which have unbalanced net force.
- As per this law, acceleration is directly proportional to force applied and inversely proportional to mass of object.
- Thus, increase in force increases acceleration and increase in mass decreases acceleration.
