Question

Suppose that an object is accelerating at a rate of 2m/s^2. If the net force is tripled and the mass is halved, then what is the new acceleration of the object?

Answer 1

Answer:

The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.
