No. It is a clever but insidious falsehood.
Which object exerts more gravitational force, object A with a mass of 25 grams and a density of 2 g/cm3 or object B with a mass of 55 grams and a density of 0.5 g/cm3? Gravitational force is dependant on the mass and the mass alone. Object B mass 55 g will exert a force on say a mass of 1g at a say 1 meter over twice that of object A . In the gravitational field of earth one would weigh 55g and the other 25g As the gravitational force between two masses is is G X (M1 X M2)/R2 where R is the distance between them there is will be an attractive force between the two objects that that acts on both objects. In the absence of any other forces they will move towards each, g the 25 g object accelerating more quickly.
If the MASS of the 1st Object in a COLLISION is too small to generate a FORCE large enough to overcome the INERTIA of the 2nd Object, then the more massive Object will not move. This could make it look like the more massive object is not REACTING to the Collision.
If the force is gravity, the answer is yes. Gravity "pulls" on an object in proportion to its mass. A heavier (more massive) object is pulled on by gravity more than a lighter (less massive) object. A football tackle is pulled on by gravity more than the average grade school student.
Newton's Second Law of motion refers to the relationship between force, mass and acceleration. Force is equal to the mass of an object times its acceleration. F=ma or Acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the Force applied to the object, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. a=F/m
. The amount of Force needed to make an object change its motion depends on the Mass of the object and the Force required
More mass --> more force required. More acceleration --> more force required. Remember the relationship commonly known as "Newton's Second Law": F=ma (force = mass x acceleration).
More mass will cause more gravitational force.
The force of gravity on an object is dependent on the object's mass. Objects with more mass experience a greater force of gravity compared to objects with less mass.
Force is directly related to mass according to Newton's second law of motion, which states that force equals mass multiplied by acceleration (F=ma). This means that the more mass an object has, the more force is required to accelerate it. In other words, an object with more mass will require more force to move or stop compared to an object with less mass.
The object with a smaller mass will accelerate more when acted upon by a constant force because acceleration is inversely proportional to mass. Specifically, the acceleration is calculated by dividing the force by the mass of the object, so a smaller mass will result in a greater acceleration.
More mass will cause more gravitational force.
The force of inertia is related to an object's mass. Inertia is an object's resistance to changes in its motion, and the greater an object's mass, the greater its inertia. This means that objects with more mass require more force to accelerate or decelerate.
The force acting on an object is directly proportional to its mass and acceleration. This relationship is described by Newton's second law of motion, which states that the force acting on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration. In simpler terms, the greater the mass of an object, the more force is needed to accelerate it, and the faster an object is moving, the more force is required to change its velocity.
Isaac Newton's second law of motion states that force=mass x accelaration So the bigger the mass of the object the more force is needed to propel the object forward. This equation can also be shown as, f=ma
The force required to accelerate an object depends on the object's mass. Newton's second law states that Force = Mass * Acceleration. Re-written to solve for acceleration, this becomes Acceleration = Force/Mass. Basically, this means that the more mass an object has, the more force is required to accelerate it. Also, the faster you want to accelerate the object, the more force you will need.
From the formula force = mass x acceleration, if there is more mass, there will be less acceleration. Assuming the force doesn't also change.From the formula force = mass x acceleration, if there is more mass, there will be less acceleration.

You increase the object's acceleration.
