Question

You push on a light object (small mass) with a certain amount of force and it moves. If you push just as hard on a heavier object (large mass) it will move _____ the light object. a. Faster than b. slower than c. the same as

Answer 1

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

It will move slower than the light the object. The equation is Newton's 2nd Law of F = ma. If the force is constant, and the mass changes to something larger, then the acceleration must become smaller. You could also just do this yourself, push two objects with your hands. The heavier one will move slower assuming you used the same amount of force
