Acceleration depends on both mass and the net force acting on the object.
Here's why:
* Newton's Second Law of Motion: This law states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. Mathematically, this is represented as:
F = m * a
Where:
* F = Net force (in Newtons)
* m = Mass (in kilograms)
* a = Acceleration (in meters per second squared)
To find the acceleration, you need to know the net force acting on the object.
Example:
If a 26 kg object has a net force of 52 Newtons acting on it, its acceleration would be:
* a = F / m
* a = 52 N / 26 kg
* a = 2 m/s²
