When a lump of mud and a brick are acted on by the force of same magnitude and same direction will they exhibit the same effect and why?

According to Newton's Second Law, the "effect" (the acceleration) would depend on the objects' masses. For more mass, there would be less acceleration.

When does an object undergoes acceleration?
Acceleration is the change in velocity of an object over time. Take note that velocity is a vector quantity which means that it has magnitude and direction...Thus...An object undergoes acceleration when:1. there is a change in the magnitude of the velocity (speed) of an object.2. there is a change in direction of an object.3. it changes both in direction and magnitude.
How can you Calculate the magnitude and direction of the resultant force of an object which is acted on by a force of 4.0N and a force of 10N that are in the same direction?
Add the resultant vectors 4 + 10 (and as they are in the same direction there will be no sine or cosine factors to worry about).Answer: 14N in the direction of the forces
What two factors does acceleration depend on?
-- the magnitude and direction of the force acting on an object -- the mass of the object being forcefully acted upon
How does an object move under the influence of unbalanced forces?
According to Newton's Second Law, F=ma, an object accelerates in the direction of a force, and the acceleration depends on the magnitude of the force and the mass of the object being acted upon. In other words, an object will accelerate in the direction of the net force.
What does every action force have?
Every action force, according to Newton's third law of motion,has a reaction force acted on equal magnitude and opposite direction. but the action and reaction force do not cancel each other because they act on different bodies.
What will be the answer toAn object acted upon a force will what in the same direction of the force?
An object acted on by a force will accelerate in the direction of the force. Be careful, though, as this doesn't mean it will actually MOVE in the direction of the force. It may just slow down, etc.
What is a stage direction referred to in plays?
stage is attractive and plays are acted
When an object has had its shape or direction of motion changed it has been acted on by a?
force
What occurs to an object's direction when acted on by an unbalanced force?
Direction will be changed by the force caused acceleration, a=F/m.
A moving object that changes direction is being acted on by a?
Either balanced or unbalanced force!
Why is a particle in uniform circular motion not moving at a constant velocity?
No. Velocity has direction and magnitude. The magnitude can be constant, but if the body is in circular motion, the direction of the movement is constantly changing, which means that the velocity is constantly changing. Changing velocity means that the body is accelerating. In this case, because the motion of the body is always changing away from a straight line to cause it to go round the circle, the acceleration acts towards the centre of the circle.
What is an object's resistance in speed or direction until an outside force is acted upon it?
friction
