Hold on there. Mass doesn't control the force. Force controls the acceleration.

As the mass of an object decreases, less force is required to produce the same

acceleration.

If the accelerating force is gravitational, that force will decrease. If it is not, then the force will not decrease.

What happens to gravitational force when there is change in mass?

It decreases. For the greater the mass of the object, the more gravity is has.


What happens to the acceleration and force of an object when mass increases?

When mass increases, the force increases (f=ma) and the acceleration decreases (a=F/m).


What happens to the acceleration of an object as its mass decreases?

Acceleration is a net force that is inversely dependent on mass, therefore if an object's mass decreases, acceleration increases.


How is the acceleration of a mass changes if the force applied to it increases or decreases?

Acceleration increases when force increases and decreases when force decreases.


What happens to acceleration of an object if the force on the object stays the same as its mass decreases?

It increases. (Standard rocket science.)


A mass is accelerated when what acts upon the mass?

It depends ... If the body is accelerating uniformly with a constant acceleration a ....then the Force is a constant force.... But if it is accelerating non uniformly....then the Force is not constant...The 2nd law says F=m*a where m is mass of the body...


What happens to volume if mass stays the same then density decreases?

The mass either decreases or increases


What is inertia force?

It is important to learn many things in physics. Inertia Force is defined as a force opposite to an accelerating force acting on a body, and equal to the product of the accelerating force and the mass of the body.


Does mass of a body decreases when force is applied on it?

no


If the distance stays the same and the force decreases what will happen to mass?

The force of gravity is directly related to the mass of every object in the system. Therefore, if any object in the system decreases in mass, the force of gravity also decreases.


How does force affects mass and acceleration?

Increasing force increases acceleration but increasing mass decreases acceleration.


If an object with a mass of 2 kilograms is being pushed by a force of 4 newtons how fast is it accelerating?

force=mass*accelaration force/mass=accelaration 4/2=2m/s2
