Q 1/7
Score 0
According to Newton's second law, how does the mass of an object affect the force needed to accelerate it?
30
Less mass requires more force to accelerate.
The force needed to accelerate an object increases as its mass increases.
The mass only affects speed, not force.
The force needed is independent of the mass.
Q 2/7
Score 0
What happens to the acceleration of an object if the force applied remains constant but the mass of the object is doubled?
30
The acceleration remains the same.
The acceleration is halved.
The acceleration doubles.
The acceleration becomes zero.
