The relevant law: F = ma, which can be reorganized as a = F / m. If you decrease the mass, the acceleration will therefore increase, since the mass is in the denominator.

What is the difference of accelaration and decelaration?

Acceleration is an increase in change in speed over time of an object, and deceleration is a decrease in the change in speed over time of an object. -aerol-


What is algebraic symbol of decrease and increase?

< = decrease > = increase


What are two ways you can increase the accelaration of an object?

There's only one way and that is to increase the force acting on it.


How does net force affect acceleration?

If net force acting on a mass decreases, the acceleration of the object decreases. But if the mass of an object were to decrease while a constant net force acted on it, its acceleration would INcrease. If the net force on the object AND the object's mass both decrease, the object's acceleration could either increase OR decrease. We'd need the actual numbers in order to calculate how it would turn out.


What will increase accelaration of an object that is pushed by a force?

A net force will cause an acceleration. That is to say, if a net force acts on an object, the object's velocity will change.


Does every transfer decrease momentum?

No. Total momentum always remains constant. Therefore, if the momentum of one object decreases, the momentum of another must needs increase.


What happen when the mass of a object decrease the force gravity does what?

Decreases in the same proportion.


When an object is put in the water do the object increase or decrease its weight?

yes it do


What two ways can you increase the acceleration of an object?

U can increase and decrease it


Microscopic field size increase with higher magnification?

Magnification is related because as magnification increases, the depth of field decreases.


What happens to the angular velocity of an object as it starts to decrease in size?

Because momentum is conserved, if the size or mass decreases, its inertia decreases so its angular velocity will increase


When the temperature of an object increases would the wavelength of energy radiates increase or decrease?

Increase
