By F = ma, if the force remains constant, and the mass decreases, this would mean that the acceleration has increased by exactly the same factor as the decrease in mass. That is, if the mass of a substance was halved, its acceleration would have doubled exactly.

Without an increase in mass the acceleration would decrease

In that case, the same force will produce a greater acceleration.

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.


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).


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 the accelerating force as mass decreases?

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.


How does force affects mass and acceleration?

Increasing force increases acceleration but increasing mass decreases acceleration.


What would happen to the acceleration if you increased the mass?

the acceleration decreases


When the mass of an object increases how does the object's acceleration change?

As mass increases acceleration 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.)


How does changing force and mass affects acceleration?

Increasing force increases acceleration but increasing mass decreases acceleration.


What happens to the mass of an object what happens to the acceleration?

If the mass of an object increases, what happens to the acceleration?


Why is this not the acceleration formula - acceleration force - mass if acceleration increases when force increases and it decreases when mass increases?

My bad, im asking why the formula isnt acceleration= force - mass


What happens to acceleration when speed decreases on a speed time graph?

Acceleration is negative.
