Answer:
The option B which states, "a force can accelerate a lighter vehicle more easily than a heavier vehicle which are moving" is the correct answer among the four options.
Explanation:
Sir Isaac Newton is extremely important in the field of Mathematics and her branches. Newton is known to be the first one to explain the laws of motion. According to him, there are three basic laws of motion. The above-mentioned answer is a classic example of his 2nd law of Motion, that is, when force is given on a body, the rate of change momentum is equivalent to the force applied. Option B is the only one that explains the 2nd law of motion and hence can be concluded as the right answer.
