IF you apply a force of a 100 N to two objects and object a accelerates at 10 meters per second per second and object b accelerates at 12 meters per second per second which object has a smaller mass?

Object b has a smaller mass because Newton's second law says that F=ma ... or m=F/a ... or mass is inversely proportional to acceleration. Since the applied force (F) is the same in both situations and the acceleration (a) of object b is larger than that of object a, object b must be smaller than object a.

How do unbalanced forces effect an objects motion?
If the [group of] forces on an object is unbalanced, the object accelerates.
How does an objects mass affect how it accelerates to earth?
It doesn't. Close to Earth's surface, any object will accelerate towards the center of the Earth at a rate of about 9.8 meters/second squared, regardless of the object's mass.
What happens when you have unbalanced forces acting on an object?
Then the object accelerates; its velocity changes.Then the object accelerates; its velocity changes.Then the object accelerates; its velocity changes.Then the object accelerates; its velocity changes.
Do eyes make object smaller?
No, eyes do not make objects smaller. The image of an object on the retina is smaller than the object itself.
How does force effect an objects motion?
Force on an object accelerates the object. That means it can make the object go faster, go slower, or change the direction it's moving.
True or false if an objects accelerates a push or pull must be acting on it?
If an object accelerates, there must be a force acting on it according to newton's second law, so I would answer true.
What is the smaller object that are built to represent the detail of larger objects?
The smaller objects which are built to represent the larger objects are called Model
What effect does a force have on a moving object when the force is not along the objects path?
Air resistance slows down the object. The kinetic energy accelerates the object. Friction creates a reaction between the surface and the object.
What happens when force is applied to an object?
When a force is applied to an object, it accelerates. for example, if you push an object, the object accelerates away from you and, eventually, will move away from you..
Free falling object?
Any free falling object accelerates at towards the earth at 10 meters per second squared regardless of volume and mass. This is due to gravity.
When an object ids dropped from a height it accelerates when it fall down name the force which accelerates the object?
That is called gravity.
Does heat flow cooler or smaller object?
Heat flow's from cooler objects.
