force = mass x acceleration so if force doubles acceleration doubles to 8 m/s2

What happens to your weight if acceleration due to gravity somehow doubled?
IF gravity doubled, THEN your weight would double. And acceleration and the force of gravity are indistinguishable from each other.
What happens to acceleration if an object's mass is halved and the applied force is doubled?
The acceleration is multiplied by four. a = F/m
What happens to acceleration when force is doubled?
F=ma, if "a" doubles and "m" is the same, the resultant "F" will double. Acceleration is doubled if force is doubled, a1=f/m; a2= 2f/m= 2a1.
What happens to the speed of a moving object when it is doubled?
Acceleration is doubled. F = ma, where m is mass and a is acceleration. If mass is halved, acceleration is changed by a related quantity, X in this equation. F = (1/2m)(Xa) The coefficients before mass and accelerations have to equal 1 if force stays the same, so... 1/2*X=1 X = 2 therefore, acceleration is doubled.
What happens to the acceleration as you decreases the mass?
By F = ma, if the force remains constant, and the mass decreases, this would mean that the acceleration has increased by exactly the same factor as the decrease in mass. That is, if the mass of a substance was halved, its acceleration would have doubled exactly.

What happens when a force is exerted?
Newton's second law of motion states that force is equal to mass times acceleration, or F = ma. So, if a force is exerted on something that has mass, it will accelerate.
What happens to the acceleration when mass and force are doubled?
Acceleration remains the same. Remember that Force equals Mass times Acceleration, or Acceleration equals Force divided by Mass. So, if both Force and Mass double, Force Divided by Mass remains the same.
If the mass of an object is doubled what happens to the acceleration of that object?
It would depend on what force is driving the acceleration. If that force is gravity, then acceleration is constant irrespective of variations in mass. All else being equal and presuming the acceleration is by the same exerted force on both the larger and smaller object, the larger object would experience 1/3 the acceleration. (The formula for determining the force is F = ma , the mass times the acceleration. For the same F, and m2 is 3m, then a2 must equal a/3. )
What happens to the diameter if the circumference is doubled?
The diameter of a circle is doubled if the circumference is doubled.

What happens to the wavelength of a wave that is traveling at a certain speed and its frequency is doubled?
If the frequency becomes double what it was, then the wavelength becomes 1/2 of what it was.
What happens to the acceleration as you decreases the mass?
By F = ma, if the force remains constant, and the mass decreases, this would mean that the acceleration has increased by exactly the same factor as the decrease in mass. That is, if the mass of a substance was halved, its acceleration would have doubled exactly.
What happens to the mass of an object what happens to the acceleration?
If the mass of an object increases, what happens to the acceleration?
What happens if the base of a triangle is doubled?
If the altitude is not changed, the area would be doubled.
