The difference is due to inertia. Inertia is the resistance to a change in motion (acceleration). A more massive object will have greater inertia, and therefore a greater resistance to a change in motion, resulting in a slower acceleration. A less massive object has lower inertia, and therefore less of a resistance to a change in motion, resulting in a faster acceleration.
What else can I help you with?
How can an object with a large mass have the same acceleration as a an object with an small mass?
According to Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of an object is dependent on the net force acting on it, not its mass. If the net force acting on both objects is the same, they will both experience the same acceleration, regardless of their mass. This means that a large mass object and a small mass object can have the same acceleration if the force acting on them is equal.
What would you expect to accelerate most?
I would expect small, light objects to accelerate more than large, heavy objects when subjected to the same force, due to Newton's second law of motion (F=ma). Objects with less mass will experience a greater acceleration for a given force applied to them.
Why do large objects cool more slowly then similar small objects?
Large objects cool more slowly than small objects because they have a smaller surface area relative to their volume, making it harder for heat to escape. Additionally, large objects have more thermal mass, allowing them to retain heat for longer periods of time. This results in a slower cooling rate compared to similar small objects.
Which of these would you expect to require the most force increasing acceleration of a small mass or decreasing acceleration of a small mass?
Increasing the acceleration of a small mass would typically require more force compared to decreasing its acceleration. This is because acceleration is directly proportional to force according to Newton's second law (F = ma), so to increase acceleration, more force needs to be applied. Conversely, reducing acceleration would require applying less force.
How do the accelerations compare if the same force is exerted first is on the large mass and then on a small mass?
Gravitationally, the same force does not affect a small mass and a large mass.The small mass is acted upon by a smaller gravitational force, and the large massis acted upon by a larger gravitational force. The result is that the small mass andthe large mass fall with the same acceleration, and meet the ground with the samespeed. During the fall, onlookers typically nudge each other and remark to each other:"My word! The large mass weighs more than the small mass!" They are correct in theirimpression, and the scientific reason behind their perspicacious observation is the factthat the gravitational force acting on the large mass is greater than the gravitationalforce acting on the small mass.

Do small or large hearts beat faster?

Does water evaporate faster from a large opening or a small opening?
Water evaporate faster from a large opening.
Which germinates faster a small lima bean or a large bean?
small
The reason that small planets tend to lose interior heat faster than larger planets is essentially the same as the reason that?
small objects cool faster than large objects: their smaller size-to-surface area ratio means they have less capacity to retain heat. The larger surface area of small planets relative to their volume leads to more efficient heat loss. This results in faster cooling of their interiors compared to larger planets.

What happens if a large object and small object fall into free fall and what is their acceleration?
In a vacuum, i.e. space, both objects would accelerate at the same rate. If the object they were attracted to was the same size as our planet the acceleration would be 9.81 m/s squared. In an atmosphere the acceleration would be inconsistent and based on air resistance.
Who would fall faster a man with a small parachute or a man with a large parachute?
The man with a small parachute will fall faster.
Which one moves faster across the cell membrane the large or the small?
Small particles move faster across the membrane.

Additionally, large objects have more thermal mass, allowing them to retain heat for longer periods of time. This results in a slower cooling rate compared to similar small objects.
How does mass of an object affects it's acceleration?
It depends on the force. The acceleration due to gravity (for small objects) is essentially independent of mass, although air friction may be worse for very small objects. If, however, you have a constant force. F = MA Force = Mass * Acceleration. Divide each side by mass and you get: Acceleration = (Force / Mass) So, for constant force, the more mass an object has, the less acceleration. Or, you could say that for constant force, the acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass.
Which of these would you expect to require the most force increasing acceleration of a small mass or decreasing acceleration of a small mass?
Increasing the acceleration of a small mass would typically require more force compared to decreasing its acceleration. This is because acceleration is directly proportional to force according to Newton's second law (F = ma), so to increase acceleration, more force needs to be applied. Conversely, reducing acceleration would require applying less force.
