Apply a larger force. Make the object less massive.
Decrease air resistance acting on the object.
Decrease the coefficients of friction by using a 'smooth' surface, where friction is negligible.
doing some homework? A net force vector/imbalance can either increase velocity (positive acceleration), decrease velocity (negative acceleration) or effect zero acceleration (perpendicular).
force=mass*acceleration Therefore acceleration = force/mass This means you can change an objects acceleration in two ways, either by applying a force to the object (for example pushing a shopping trolly). You can also change the acceleration of an object by changing the mass of the object (putting shopping in the shopping trolly)
-- The speed can increase. -- The speed can decrease. -- The path can bend from a straight line. Each of these is an example of 'acceleration'.
Mass and velocity
Acceleration is the change in velocity and/or direction of an object. Acceleration can either speed an object up, slow it down (deceleration), or change the direction in which the object is moving.
U can increase and decrease it
Decrease the mass, and change the force.
By looking at the equation F=ma we have two ways to increase acceleration. If we keep the mass constant and increase the force applied then the acceleration of the object will increase. If we keep the force constant and use a smaller mass then the mass will experience a greater acceleration than a greater mass.

Mass and velocity
-Reduce the object's mass. -Increase the force applied to the object
Acceleration is the change in velocity and/or direction of an object. Acceleration can either speed an object up, slow it down (deceleration), or change the direction in which the object is moving.
-- Decrease its mass. -- Increase the net force acting on it.
