Remember Newton's First Law - Unless acted on by a force, bodies at rest will stay at rest and bodies in motion will stay in motion. To be able to observe acceleration, first a force has to act on the object. So, the question should be reversed - "Will the force on an object affect the acceleration?"
Answer - YES.
How will it be affected? Refer to Newton's Second Law for that.
The force acting upon the object as well as the mass of the object. Both will affect the acceleration of the object.
The force acting upon the object as well as the mass of the object. Both will affect the acceleration of the object.
Acceleration of a falling object is directly proportional tothe force of gravity in the object's location.
Force is directly proportional to acceleration, so the greater the force, the greater the acceleration.
The only thing that causes or influences acceleration of an object is force.
-- the object's mass -- the net force acting on it
Force and mass. Acceleration is force per unit of mass (a=f/m).
Newton's second law of motion covers this.The net force on an object accelerates the object.
this equation might help force = mass * acceleration the more massive an object is the more force is required to accelerate it
Force and acceleration are NOT the same. If you apply a net force to an object, it causes the object to accelerate. The amount of acceleration depends on the force and the mass of the object. Force = mass x acceleration.
force of 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.
