Answer:

The acceleration of an object will increase.

Step by step:

This is because
F=ma by solving for acceleration we obtain:


a=(F)/(m)

This means that if you divide by a smaller number the output will be larger, and since Force is the same it would take a larger and larger acceleration to obtain the same force. Try your own numbers on a calculator to prove it to yourself.
