This is directly related to Newton's Second Law of Motion, which states:
Force (F) = Mass (m) x Acceleration (a)
We can rearrange this equation to solve for acceleration:
Acceleration (a) = Force (F) / Mass (m)
From this equation, we can see that:
* Acceleration is directly proportional to force: If force increases, acceleration increases.
* Acceleration is inversely proportional to mass: If mass increases, acceleration decreases.
Therefore, if the mass of an object increases while the force remains constant, the acceleration will decrease.
